I originally used the 6 monthly Ubuntu releases for my personal server, but I started getting issues which weren't being resolved through bug reports. I run things like Postfix, Dovecot, Nginx, Radicale and Unbound.

I decided to try Fedora and I'm absolutely loving it. The packages are at least as fresh as Ubuntu and bug reports are promptly actioned.

Admittedly I would likely use a RHEL derivative for non personal scenarios but I honestly have zero issues with Fedora server's stability.

The one thing I would say is that although I really did try to leave SELinux in enforcement mode, using ausearch and audit2allow with dontaudit rules disabled to build custom rules over days or weeks, I kept getting bitten by it. So it's in permissive mode.

In summary, using Fedora for my personal server has been a hugely positive experience.
