I recently acquired an Intel Compute Stick during a liquidation sale. Has anyone used one of these as a home server? I currently host UmbrelOS on a RPi 4, which works great, but I can’t imagine what I would use the Compute Stick for…

    Another note, usually wired net connection is better for server usage, but afaik none of the compute sticks have an ethernet connector. But you can buy usb network cards which can give you better stability even on an usb2 port.

      I have less issues with wireless devices at work than wired, but it could come down to our sd-access network being designed by literal monkeys.

      But I think that in 2023 people should pick layer1 based on the use-case and not old sayings.
