I was thinking about changing my server’s OS (currently using Ubuntu server)

Which would be the best in the case of only using docker and ZFS?

I thought that Debian would be more debloated and efficient but I need a Web UI and from what I have seen TrueNAS is very complete and is not absurdly slow, let me know your thoughts!

    I’ve beem using cockpit for years but it does not work with docker and some plugins (like the zfs one) have some assets missing, also the Navigator works really slow when moving files (it should be instantaneously) and leaves the empty folders in the old directory, making me always end up using ssh for that things.

    I was thinking about using FileBrowser in a docker container but I would also like a UI for ZFS and basic graphics for system load. Htop and btop are some options but I don’t feel comfortable using them

      I believe there’s something wrong with your setup then.

      Filebrowser is a SINGLE binary, no need to run it in a container and deal with all the mapping stuff when it would be an essential part of the NAS.
