Comment on How to Setup a Secure Ubuntu Home Server
pulsewidth@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoUnless you wanna run headless and do everything via SSH then desktop is better, its essentially identical to server, but with a GUI and some apps bundled by default - both of which new users and infrequent server admins generally need.

Right, but if I don’t care for gui and am good with cli, would this guide still be followable? That’s kind of what I was trying to ask, I guess.

That guide looks like it has all steps explained with terminal commands, so it should be fine to go for Server version to follow the guide.
I’m also pretty sure you can install the desktop GUI for Server later if you decide you need it for whatever reason, just in case.
