I haven’t found any good information on which distro to use for the NAS I am building. Sure, there are a few out there. But as far as I can tell, none are immutable and that seems to be the new thing for long term durability.

    I use NixOS for this. It works wonderfully.

    Immutable means different things to different people, but to me:

    1. Different programs don’t conflict with each other.
    2. My entire server config is stored in a versioned Git repo.
    3. I can rollback OS updates trivially and pick which base OS version I want to use.
