Picking the tight software (midwest.social)

Anyone have any advice on how to choose between TruNAS, openmediavault, etc for homelab. I want to run nextcloud and jellyfin and maybe some VMs, though I also don't really think that RAID is the best option for future proofing but I could be wrong.

Ultimately many people progress from a ready made solution like those you mentioned to more standard Linux distros as those are more flexible if you want to do something other than NAS.

OpenMediaVault is the closest to regular Debian, so if you see yourself progressing like this, it is probably the best choice for learning.
