I was thinking about changing my server’s OS (currently using Ubuntu server)

Which would be the best in the case of only using docker and ZFS?

I thought that Debian would be more debloated and efficient but I need a Web UI and from what I have seen TrueNAS is very complete and is not absurdly slow, let me know your thoughts!

    TrueNAS is a propose built solution.

    You’ll need to use it the way it’s designed, which is extremely capable, but reading the manual is mandatory or you’ll do it wrong and then it will suck. I know this.

    There’s TN Core, and Scale. Ones based on FreeBSD, one’s Linux. You can compare for your needs.

    TN can be an enterprise solution if that tells you the capability.

    Edit, it’s meant to be a storage solution. Scale adds containers. It’s not great IMO as a general purpose server OS .
