Jackie, will you be at Vaco tonight? We could discuss this more. There are several types of servers that could be useful in a home setting. Plex, Jellyfin, and Kodi are popular media servers. Nextcloud is a great project for file hosting and offers many others features and plugins. There's also a ton you can do by just having a Linux server running Docker and/or a hypervisor for virtual machines. You can host a variety of workloads as Docker containers or VMs.
