I’m putting together a bunch of my old PC parts to get a home server going, and i was wondering what the best OS would be. I have Mint installed on it currently, but I’m not sure thats the best option so I’m looking for alternatives.

I’m definitely a Linux novice, so I dont want anything super complicated. I was thinking of using Debian since it seems decent, but I really know nothing about the different distros and would appreciate a good starting point if anything

    I am a bit of a fan of using Proxmox. It’s a bit complicated, but the fact that it allows you to strictly apportion your resources to specific tasks and then wipe and reinstall just that one section without affecting the others can be really fun and useful.
