What OS is best for a palworld server? (lemm.ee)

I want to setup a Palworld server for a friend of mine. Unfortunately SteamOS isn't available on their site. What OS can I use to setup such a server? I want to run it on a HP microserver N36L. Preferably I want to maintain it through a web GUI, so I won't have to connect a monitor all the time. Im mostly experienced with Debian like OSes, but im willing to try anything.

Thanks in advance!

I generally go with Debian, makes a good stable base. Then over SSH you can use a helper script like LinuxGSM, or use Docker containers. Or both? I’ve seen containers that use LGSM inside…

For the web aspect, you can use DockGE or Portainer as a simple interface for the docker containers, but if you want to dig into the game configs from the same panel, you might want a full grown game management program, or a system level panel like Cockpit.

One cool looking option is to set up a full out hosting panel like AMP, though admittedly it gives me weird issues often enough to think about downgrading to more basic options again. It was meant for a hosting seller environment, and behaves accordingly.
