Any sysadmins here to suggest an alternative server distro? We’ve been installing Ubuntu in most of our VMs at our company, and while I realize it’s a hassle to switch them all, I kinda want to at least have a discussion about it.
Fedora is the only other “server distro” that I know of but obviously you can install any distro and just omit the desktop environment from the install.

ditch ubuntu and switch to debian :)
We’ve had Debian on some machines, and while it’s stable, packages tend to be too old for some operations. Maybe Sid…
…there is backporting or containers. Or arch btw :D

Debian
I use Debian for my own server for over 3 years now and it’s been great so far.
