The free one is ARM/Pi etc. and the others will run regular apps as well as UWP (universal) Apps - A quick check shows they have changed things around a bit making it more confusing by bringing older embedded OS's etc. under the IoT umbrella. I've been using the IoT/Arm releases since 2015 IIRC when it was the only IoT there was and the one I'm speaking of. Something new that makes it more confusing is Server 2019 also has a headless version that carries the core name.

To be clear, there is a GUI on the headless versions but not a desktop/file explorer that we are used to - it's just an app that lets you config some things. No desktop is what I mean by headless. The first headless core server version was Server 2008 but would need to check.
