My go-to distros are Pop os for better game and new hardware support, and Linux Mint if I'm wanting something a little more stable. Both have served me really well over the years.

I've been playing around with Siduction (basically Debian unstable) recently and that seems pretty decent if you want the latest and greatest.

  • Nextcloud
  • OnlyOffice container
  • Jellyfin media server
  • Gitea
  • DokuWiki
  • Woodpecker CI container for building static websites and other CI tasks for hobby projects
  • HAProxy load balancer to forward external traffic to the right services
  • A pair of web servers hosting various websites/apps
  • A pair of Postfix acting as internal mail relays that sends mail through Mailgun
  • SaltStack for configuration management
  • Munin for monitoring
  • MariaDB database for various internal apps
  • Four internal BIND DNS servers (two are the primary and replica on virtual machines, then two more replicas on Pis in the event the VMs go down)
  • OpenLDAP directory server for centralized auth
  • Kanboard for video project tacking
  • Postgres database for DaVinci Resolve projects
  • UniFi controller
  • Backup server hosted on a Raspberry Pi 4 w/ a pair of 5TB external HDDs in a BtrFS mirror

And most importantly: as of recently I'm self-hosting Lemmy and Kbin instances for myself to try them out! Kbin was a pain to setup, but I seem to be liking it more.

It's all running on two Ryzen R7 1700 systems with 64GB of RAM in one and 48GB in the other (long story), and virtual disk storage is done over a 10Gb iSCSI link to a TrueNAS system with two 1TB SSDs in a RAIDz mirror. I've also got an unRAID NAS that hosts my video project files. Pretty smooth overall :D

It's anecdotal evidence but it seems to have been much better for me in the last day too!
