TrueNAS SCALE as host with an Ubuntu LTS VM running Docker containers.
Original I went with only containers running on top of SCALE but both iX and TrueCharts made it harder to run plain Docker Compose on TrueNAS.
I tried to use fedora server or was it cloud? Idk but I tried fedora as a server and wanted to set up a VM but got confused. Storage pools scared me away. Will try to learn it when I have the time
Rocky, but I'll probably give Debian a try next time I decide to nuke my install

Boxes that physically live in my home are mostly Manjaro. They’re also not externally accessible from the internet.
Anything in the cloud I standardize on Debian. Two distros and consistency makes maintenance much easier.
Anything in a container runs whatever it was built on because porting a docker compose file from, say, Alpine to anything else is just not worth the time and energy.
