Pretty much the title. I’ve seen plenty of people using proxmox and truenas but I don’t really see many homelab users running Ubuntu server or something similar? Do many people actually use it to run docker or any containers on their machines? Just curious.

I used to use Ubuntu VMs on Proxmox host but I’ve switched to Debian a year or so ago.
I want to run an IRC chat and a virtual assistant so I’ll probably run those in an Ubuntu server VM
Im running it as a base OS on an R710
I have used and still using ubuntu servers.
A lot?
I have it on two different servers at the moment
Rocky Linux on bare metal to run mostly docker containers for me.
I’ve used it plenty in production. Not so much in my home lab.
20 Ubuntu VMs as we speak, however 10 RHEL based VMs and 1 openSUSE VM thrown in the mix.
I use a Ubuntu VM to run some older Docker containers (from when I was first learning). I’d migrate them over but I just don’t care enough to migrate them. They’re just Minecraft and game proxy servers.
Homelab = Yes as baremetal with some vms
Work = Also yes, 200 physical servers, 2000~ lxc/lxd containersI use an Ubuntu server running on a 2013 office PC with an i5-3470. Mainly used as a media server, seed box, file server, and Minecraft server all running in docker containers.
Honestly had no particular reason for using Ubuntu other than it being the only Linux distro I’ve used before. Didn’t even know about TrueNAS or Proxmox when I started.
All day everyday - all my servers are non-vm Ubuntu and/or one of the other sharply dressed penguin varietities :D
I tried, don’t like it, it needs a lot of my attention, decided to buy unraid and spend time with my family.
I run a proxmox VM for Stable Diffusion but that’s about all I use Ubuntu for
That is really all I use on my proxmox VMs.
I use Ubuntu on my Proxmox VM’s and containers.
