TrueNAS vs Debian (lemmy.world)

I was thinking about changing my server's OS (currently using Ubuntu server)

Which would be the best in the case of only using docker and ZFS?

I thought that Debian would be more debloated and efficient but I need a Web UI and from what I have seen TrueNAS is very complete and is not absurdly slow, let me know your thoughts!

Maybe have a look at Proxmox. It's a Debian-based hypervisor with a web UI and ZFS support. However, while many people host Docker on it, it's not shipped with it by default.

I've event heard of people running Proxmox as a workstation just because it's a stable Debian based distro with official ZFS support (remember Proxmox even supports being installed onto an existing Debian install)
