A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

I found an old notebook PC lying around and I'm wondering if it could be enough to run a few services like the arr suite, qbittorrent and pi-hole.

Here's a few specs: Cpu : Intel Celeron 1011 1.6ghz Ram : 1Gig Ethernet port

If you think it's not a total waste of time, what distro would you install?

If you're all set up on Debian, I don't see the advantage of switching to another flavor of Debian, unless you have a low powered machine (low specs, not much RAM).

Then I'll conseder it when I'm feeling productive. I am using an old netbook. Thanks for the answers.
