I’m looking to turn an old laptop into a home server. What distros make sense to use for that? Use a server dedicated distro like Ubuntu Server or is a regular desktop environment like Mint fine too?
Edit: TL;DR use Debian

I’ll join the circlejerk: If you search online for “How to do X on a Linux server?” chances are most results will be for Debian.
It’s basically the default vanilla Linux server OS.
