    Arch for stuff I have physical access to. Nothing’s ever gone wrong, so it’s worth it for the immediate updates and consistency with my other systems. For VPS I use Debian though, occasionally the unstable/Sid branch if I really need the latest updates. There are almost always Debian images available on a VPS.

    XCP-ng hypervisor main box for my VMs, mostly Ubuntu Server but some Alma Linux VMs too. TrueNAS Core for my NAS box.

    Might start switching my VMs from Ubuntu Server to Debian soon, we’ll see.

    I am running Ubuntu server and I am… satisfied with it. It does what it should, no problems, nothing to worry about, stable AF (as any mature distro?). But lately I am thinking about switching to fedora server (I need to reset my system one way or another, because my space on the hard drive for the system ran out of space (it was a small drive)). I am using fedora on my work machine and I really like it, so I thought I could give fedora on my server a try.

        I have a VM on my FreeBSD desktop with Bhyve. I have 2 ThinkPads, an x61t & x201t that run it. I also have a Raspberry PI3B+ that runs it, and is my web server.
