I found the best Linux server distros for your home lab

Use Linux for a home lab; Ubuntu Server is an easy, lightweight, widely supported, container-friendly distribution suitable for virtual or bare-metal server workloads.

Want to self-host for free? This server OS makes it easy - here's how to get started

Because of that, you need to be very familiar and comfortable with the command line. Or you can install a desktop environment. In my opinion, this is the single easiest way to make Ubuntu Server easier, especially if you're relatively new to Linux. Having a GUI desktop will strip away the fear of having to use the command line, because you'll have plenty of apps to use (such as the file manager, user manager, GUI app store, and much more).
