Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.

TrueNAS scale with truecharts for my main server. I'm considering rolling out a compute only server with openSUSE microOS to leave trueNAS only for storage. I like openSUSE philosophy and microOS with cockpit seems solid on my tests. I might start with some old laptops and deploy the ldap server there to test it and remove that responsability from TrueNAS.
Ubuntu LTS and k3s for all workloads (except for plex, which I've not gotten around to migrating yet...)
Hello fellow k3s friend!
It's okay. You aren't alone anymore.
Debian with Yunohost.
I'm currently on ubuntu and fedora. I'd love to try coreos
One with Arch that runs gameservers for my friends, and another that runs Proxmox filled with either Arch or Debian in the containers depending on what it is in them.

I have 4 home servers. 1 running pfsense, 1 running truenas, 1 running proxmox, and 1 is a cloud key gen2 for unifi that I got for free
Windows Hyper-V Server on the host with most of the VM's split between Ubuntu and Debian. I also have two Windows VM's that I keep out of necessity.
Fedora Server
hypervisor: proxmox
vms: rhel 9.2
I have several servers I’ve acquired over the years setup in a proxmox cluster
My setup consists of the following:
Unraid, most services I self host run in docker here. Things like plex/jellyfin, nextcloud, unifi could controller.
Proxmox, used to virtualize my pfsense after I moved away from my unifi USG router. A few Linux and Debian headless virtual machines run here as well. Had pihole virtualized here as well but switched over to pfBlockerNG to consolidate.
TrueNAS, all my media shares. I also sync my desktop environments here to have a consistent windows desktop across my desktops and laptops.
Home assistant running on home assistant yellow. Runs a few add-on services.
A few actually.
Rocky Linux 9, XCP-NG, Windows server 2022 datacenter
Different usecasses.
Mythbuntu. It started its life as a MythTV server.
Ubuntu and WinServer2019 vms split over a proxmox-machine and server2019-hyperv-machine
2 each for replication.
TrueNAS, and Debian
Fedora Server, with most of the services I need running via Docker.
Arch which is great, but I want to move to FreeBSD or Proxmox for security reasons
Proxmox, Openmediavault, Ubuntu Server. Mostly because I'm lazy and I grew up using Ubuntu.
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.
