I have made a decision to start a Linux server for some projects (files, media, etc.). However, I don’t know what would be a good server for me to use. Is there any good choices for me to use? I use EndeavourOS for my laptop and my desktop, if that matters.

Server specs: 2GB RAM 240GB SSD

(This is my first server, hopefully I will be able to upgrade after some time)

    Don’t use arch, a lot of server software I use don’t have arch builds so I had to use distrobox to get the software.

      I just use docker/podman containers on my Arch Servers, not a single time I needed to rely on distrobox for anything

        Yeah, well distrobox is just a wrapper around podman. I prefer installing some server software outside of containers though. Interaction with distrobox is closer to the feeling of using software outside of a container. Dealing with docker networking and storage can be kind of a pain.
