    If Debian works on your hardware and you just want something that works and doesn’t give you issues then yes its a good choice. It will just work happily in the background for years.

    Fedora Server is a great choice if its something you want to continuously tinker with. Each release averages a little over 1 year of support so you’ll want to do a dist upgrade after each new version comes out.

    I’m currently considering switching to it on a couple of production servers I manage because they rely on PostGIS. EL9 and Debian rely on the official postgres repositories rather than shipping their own .deb/rpms and the official postgres repository’s GIS packages are so unreliable I think it would be more stable on Arch. With Fedora server however I can just install postgres and postgis from the official community repo.
