Kinda. I’m self-hosting on a computer that, if it were a human child, would be in third grade. Didn’t need to buy a Pi with worse specs to do the same job at twice the hassle.
Using a 2019 small form factor Dell desktop as an ESXI server running a handful of VM’s: Windows, Debian, DietPi, etc. I hammer the VM’s sometimes doing video conversion and everything just works.
Best part is it consumes less than 20 watts at idle, and maxes at 80 watts. Hard to beat.
