I have tried selling it but people only want the display and will pay only the fraction of the price.

I have also wanted to donate it to people in need but I think a smart phone would serve a better purpose.

Yeah, I've used it as that for now but the display strains my eyes. Is there any app/feature which could help with contrast and readability?

How do you recommend I debloat the tablet without bricking it?

The screen resolution (1280 x 800) is kinda bad, and it's also an IPS display.

Interesting use. Unfortunately I haven't found any usage like that. Maybe a home automation system and an Arduino interface?

I checked the XDA forum a bit, I found this but I'm not sure on how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and flash the ROM?

I had once bricked this tablet while playing around with rooting it and I had to take it to a repair shop. So I'd appreciate if there were working unbrick instructions and also working instructions on how to install TWRP.

What kind of servers could I run on this spec?

 

I've got an old Lenovo Tab3 850M table, running Android 6.0.1

It's pretty vanilla and I haven't installed any custom ROMs or rooted the device. The battery is in pretty good condition and the table can idle for around a week I think.

It has an 8 inch IPS display, Quad-Core 1.0GHz ARM Cortex-A53 CPU, ARM Mali-T720 MP2, 500 MHz, 4-Cores GPU, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB internal storage. The cameras are pretty terrible (even for 2016 standards), and the battery is 4300mAh.

What useful things can I do with it?

If you have got a Nvidia video card and you want to use it, use X11. Other than that use Wayland unless you encounter any bug or incompatibility.

Wayland is more modern and actively receives updates and features.
