Trying to make my first server, stuck on OS choices

I have made a decision to start a Linux server for some projects (files, media, etc.). However, I don’t know what would be a good server for me to use. Is there any good choices for me to use? I use EndeavourOS for my laptop and my desktop, if that matters.

Server specs: 2GB RAM 240GB SSD

(This is my first server, hopefully I will be able to upgrade after some time)

although I wouldn’t run TrueNAS in 2 GB of RAM

I generally spin up Debian on servers and VPS

  Raw requirements scale with storage size, 2GB for a small SSD is plenty

    TrueNAS Docs would disagree with you

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
