Makes me think DRM and TPM functions as well in that case too.

You could try distrosea before committing to an install.

It gives you a VM online to play around in for almost any distro you can think of.

Don’t forget that desktop environment (DE) and distro are decoupled in Linux, so if you didn’t like the feel of Ubuntu (GNOME DE) you can go with Kubuntu (KDE Plasma DE). Both are on DistroSea.

I set up wireguard vpn and took down all my reverse proxies as it feels more secure and is easier to maintain.

From what I’ve heard tailscale is a step easier as well. So you could vpn into your network rather than accessing the services via URL.
