For a lightweight home server: IoT LTSC Enterprise vs some other NAS/Linux OS?
TL;DR - Is IoT LTSC Enterprise any good for running a Jellyfin server and a self-hosted cloud?
-----
Trying to find information to help decide a path forward.
I have a mini-PC I want to use for the following purposes:
Jellyfin home media server (movies, music/audiobooks via Finamp)
Self-hosted cloud to cover the following bases:
\- Immich (or something as good as) for phone photo backup
\- Nextcloud or whatever software is appropriate for running a self-hosted cloud (with a view to eventually replacing OneDrive to access documents /files across multiple devices)
The obvious contenders come up time and time again:
\- TrueNAS Scale
\- OMV
\- Ubuntu Server with something called CasaOS over the top of it
\- Unraid
I keep seeing things come up telling me I need to use "Docker" - I've seen the Docker logo, but not experimented with it yet and have no experience so far.
I like the familiarity of Windows and IoT LTSC Enterprise seems like a possible option for this.
I don't like Linux and the whole CLI thing - lots of things on Linux seem to break, lots of things don't seem to work. Need to learn a new language to use it. Annoyingly, most NAS/server utilities seems to be built on/around Linux. This may be an unpopular view, but it's just my experience so far with Ubuntu and a couple of other distros I tried. Albeit, for different purposes. Are the Linux NAS /server focussed OS distros easier/more reliable?
Has anyone successfully run a similar setup, hosting a home media server with IoT LTSC Enterprise?
Has anyone had any experience of running a self-hosted cloud in IoT LTSC Enterprise?
Any thoughts/suggestions following your experiences would be appreciated. Thanks.
