Depends on both the model and your expectations.

Some models support hardware transcoding so Plex/alternatives work just fine on them.

If you have a model with a couple GBs of RAM then the world is pretty open with Docker containers.

The CPUs are fairly slow though so game server hosting and anything high speed is a no go. I mean, it’ll “work” but you probably will be wanting for more.
