📰 I swapped TrueNAS for Debian and Cockpit on my 8GB home server, and got 2.5GB of RAM back

Everyone told me a NAS needs a NAS OS, and for years I believed it. TrueNAS 25.10 ran my home server, and plenty of people keep coming back to it for good reasons. Then I looked at my dashboard and saw 3.2GB of my 8GB of RAM gone before a single file moved.
