Poorfag Retard here, I just got my nice little mini pc box for my first home server.

How should I set it up? There are so many OSes and approaches, VMs within VMs and so on.

I just want to start with hosting Immich and Obsidian, and be able to access them remotely. Any suggestions for a beginner homelabber?

op here, is proxmox running trueNAS scale a good start?

How about just trueNAS scale?

>if willing to learn things and invest time in it
debian (or some other stable distro) + docker (optionally also ansible in the future)
>otherwise
use what you find the most youtube tutorials on (probably proxmox)

Ubuntu server or debian is a good start. I personally recommend ubuntu server since it comes with a shitload of admin tools and easier starting configs.

Just debian. Docker is useless bloat for retards who don't know how to use computers.
