I want to self host in order to run Nextcloud, Firefly III, Home Assistant, maybe Photoprism, and maybe a couple other things down the line. And I want it to be fast and with low maintenance.
What would be the best thing for me? PikaPods? Can synology servers run those apps?
Try OpenMediaServer on a Odroid H3+ and install the programs through Docker containers. Use a Thermal Grizzly Cryosheet instead of thermal paste under your cooler for zero maintenance
I can’t personally attest to the “easy to use self hosting OS” since I immediately installed Ubuntu (soon to be Debian) but the hardware is good and the preinstalled OS should let you get a feel for things.

Guide I used. You just need to get used to docker compose and yaml.
Using homeassistant too would require a decent understanding of yaml.

I’ve used Yunohost for years on a cheap VPS. It’s easy to install, does most of the work for you, and low maintenance.
Issues sometimes occur with major updates, but often easy to fix, and users in the forum are willing to help.
Every program in your list is available.
I highly recommend it.
What’s your budget?
