You run a server for yourself. It can boot every day without issues. It can even hibernate while you sleep at 4am.
You can perform updates every day without issues.
You want to run everything in a container, docker, podman, or friends.
The host does not really matter, it’s all linux. Use the one that you are comfortable with. I chose fedora because I use the workstation. My second server is still on ubuntu. I won’t change it until I change the machine because it doesn’t matter that much. They are all stable.
podman is the future compared to docker
