I've had a "home lab server" for a while now, it's nothing special but I think I can do more with it, I just don't know what to do with it... I currently use it just for a pihole and (sometimes) a Minecraft server or a web server... I used to also have a nexcloud and a searxng instance (which I will probably bring back)... Any ideas for other things I can run on it?

If i remember correct the vm i'm running lemmy on has less than 300gigs of storage and i've used less than half of that with running lemmy for a couple of months with a hand full of users. I can't speak to the bandwidth aspect but i'd imagine self hosting lemmy would almost be better suited for low bandwidth so it can pull down the posts over time and hold them locally for you when you're ready, but thats just a guess.
