proxmox. i fine its very easy to work with and manage. also proxmox backup server is amazing

Arch. No Window Managers or Desktop Environments. Its easy to work with when no extra fluff is installed.

Debian Stable. Clean, easy, and reliable. Upgrades smoothly without drama.

Proxmox 4 lyf

Debian. All day, everyday.

Debian. I use mostly docker containers and super easy to spin up and manage.

Debian

Home Server: VMware ESXi NAS: Unraid

Debian, I wouldn’t pick another one.

Debian, FreeBSD. Proxmox is awesome for hosting VMs, LXC, and Docker Containers (via a VM).

I don’t have much of a homeserver, its more of an experiment - but I have Fedora IoT as hypervisor OS running a Open Media Vault guest and another Fedora IoT VM for container services.

I’m a big fan of Fedora’s Ostree setup, and have used Silverblue on the desktop for a while now, so IoT makes a lot of sense for me.

If you want a beautiful front end for docker containers

CasaOS/ZimaOS Cosmos-server Unbrel

Otherwise

• proxmox
• truenas
• unraid

Ubuntu server, some bash scripts, and a docker install. KISS

NixOS

Ubuntu LTS server. I chose it because it’s got good support both in community and enterprise support. Also it’s pretty simple to use and almost forgot it’s got zfs built in.
