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?
Even if you do want to do casaOS, or linux- I’d still recommend putting proxmox as the base os.
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.
Why not both?
I run CasaOS inside Proxmox
Unraid.
There is no better home server OS imo.
Use Proxmox as your hypervisor then you can run as many and how many different types operating system you want on top of it all at the same time.
