Linux Server vs. CasaOS vs. Proxmox - eviltoast

Hi guys, Im planing to switch my windows based Dell machine to an Linux basend. I want to run some things like Plex, AdGuard and some docker based stuff. What operatingsystem would you recomend? Ubuntu Server, CasaOS or something like an Proxmox environment?

    Proxmox is a great solution if you want to quickly spin up discreet VMs.

    If you just want a server to run docker containers then I’d recommend a Debian lite server with Cockpit webUI. It just streamlines so much and avoids the layer of abstraction you will find using something like Proxmox. Proxmox just seems a better fit for a larger server environment where you have loads of RAM and CPU cores to delegate out to each VM or LXC.

    That has been my experience.
