Linux Server OSes? (programming.dev)

I've seen a lot of different enterprise and personal use distros for servers, but what do you guys use?

I'm planning on using Debian but was wondering if there are any other good free options to consider.

NixOS. Ubuntu when I just want to test something quickly.

NixOS is perfect for server OS. hope in future a little more orchestration tools make it even easier to manage clusters of NixOS instances

Have you seen NixOps? Curious if that's getting close to what you want or not.

I think I also saw another similar idea a while back but cannot recall the name, might just be a wrong memory.
