I got a raspberry pi and some wd red drives when Google photos went for a pay model. We use it to back up our phones and pc, and to run jellyfin and torrents. It's not wildly different from doing things on pc, except it's set it and forget it. Having something always on, reliable, and "just works" makes it worthwhile.

There's three ways to do a job. The right way, the wrong way, and the rail way. Also it was the great white north!
I worked for for the railroad. Nothing is fixed ever. I witnessed hundreds of code violations every day for years. Doesn't matter if a rail car or locomotive meets code as long as it "can travel" its good to go.
When an employee inspector finds a defective rail car management determines if it will get fixed. If the supervisor "feels" like "it's not that bad" then the rail car is "let go".
I have been pleasantly surprised the last several days. I was a little disappointed with the content at first (though I did enjoy how it felt like the "old" internet), but now that the apps have rapidly improved (connect is great!), and I've started subscribing to some interesting communities I really love it. It's like a kinder gentler reddit.
"It's a tactic of the Liberals who want to trip us up on social issues," said another. "If we put too much emphasis on this issue, we give them a stick to beat us with."
Those dirty Liberals using our policies and opinions against us. It's not fair!
