I’m looking to turn an old laptop into a home server. What distros make sense to use for that? Use a server dedicated distro like Ubuntu Server or is a regular desktop environment like Mint fine too?
Edit: TL;DR use Debian

Yes, Debian is slow to change or break. Slow to change sucks on the desktop pretty often. But on servers not breaking and not changing is typically what you want.
