I ran on a Celeron J1900 for a while and for basic home services it was great.

I didn’t do any emulation or media transcoding so I can’t comment there. But I did run vpn / nas / web host kinda stuff.

That’s a beast! Post a video of it in action!

It’s a great learning exercise but challenging to get right and ensure your deliverability and basically impossible from a residential-grade IP address (if you have a business class static IP at home you could pull it off).

I ran an email server for decades but gave in and pay to host my email now.

If google decides you’re a bad guy it’s such a pain to crawl back from that and I prefer my email to just work.
