Is there a reliable, easy to use Linux OS? One with decent package support?

I am tired of Linux shenanigans and want something that works. I left Windows because it doesn’t work plus all the bs they have pulled recently. Now I am finding that many Linux are still difficult, broken by default mess.

Currently trying NixOS but I already have concerns.

        Waste of resources, possible security issues. Ubuntu server would probably be better for that purpose. I say this as someone who isn’t a fan of Ubuntu anymore.

        Honestly using FreeBSD for this instance seems to work better so I will probably keep doing that.

          For headless machines I use Debian. My point is that it really doesn’t matter. You can have a GUI on your server if you want.
