Debian is the go to for home servers. Install the xanmod repo if you need bleeding edge kernels.
I don't get the proxmox hype for home appliances. Bloating up a machine with added layers of middleware for running services is just a waste of ressources and provides more attack surface and the chance to fail. Doesn't really work with KISS.
Docker is fine tho because you arent virtualizing that much. But many services of a linux machine already run in their own chroot.
There are certain use cases which make sense tho.
