I’ve found myself at a crossroads for my journey in #selfhosting - my NAS kicked the bucket, and now that I’ve rebuilt it, TrueNAS doesn’t want to install on the fresh hardware. Debian installed fine. Combine that with the recent closing down of TrueNAS, and I’m leaning a bit towards just trying a plain old Debian server. Is it worth fussing with the installer of TrueNAS? Or is a longer term solution just actually learning Debian?

@IntrepidExplorer I kinda think we’re at Debian alone at this point, (or Proxmox if you want to run lots of containers and get backups and all the jazz)
@amcjen I didn't have much running on the previous version - Jellyfin and Tailscale was pretty much all the extras above an SMB share. Debian is definitely taking the lead!
