I was in a similar boat. Initially, I ran debian with docker but later on decided to check out unraid. It's pretty easy to get setup, and you have a lot of docker containers pre-configured, so you can just click and install. I have it notify me whenever something goes on with it, but outside of that, I don't tinker much with it.
Only two weird things about it though...
-
You dont install unraid. Instead, you run it through a usb. More specifically, the usb has a specific config that'll then load everything to your memory.
-
Recently, they redid their pay structure so not too familiar with the changes but you do have to pay for unraid.
Simple Answer: No
The moment you need to think about what distribution you need to choose from is where it'll stop any (dumb)user. Most people want a simple process with very little thinking.
If you are interested in learning linux and willing to take the time to understand the entire process that comes with it then yes.
