Pretty much the title. I’ve seen plenty of people using proxmox and truenas but I don’t really see many homelab users running Ubuntu server or something similar? Do many people actually use it to run docker or any containers on their machines? Just curious.

    I ran Ubuntu Server on VMs in Proxmox for a while, and those VMs primarily hosted services via Docke containers, but I’ve since migrated to Debian for reasons.

    So… yes! Lots of us do! We just often virtualize it rather than running it on bare-metal. That way, we can run 5 ubuntu servers with one physical box - a common homelab limitation.
