Vanilla Debian with just NFS exports?
Too complex
Any reason why you want to change from OMV. It’s not perfect but my go to media server.
UI IS TRASH AND OUTDATED
WHY ARE YOU YELLING??
YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET THAT CAPS LOCK KEY FIXED, MATE!
Just stick with OMV, its solid.
There’s also XPenology - a hacked Synology software to run on non-Synology systems. Awesome when you’ve got it running, can be somewhat adventurous and/or nerve-wrecking when a major update is due.
TrueNAS is probably the most popular one. It’s pretty solid but also does a lot of things (like running apps in docker) and you have to get used to some design choices.
Didn’t they just abandon the FOSS edition recently?
No, but the build system
OMV also runs docker containers, I have a handful of containers running on mine.
