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…

I haven’t experienced any issues so far! The RPi 4 seems to be a relatively powerful device.

Hey, for what it’s worth I ran Jellyfin on an Intel Celeron N3350 stick PC for a few years and just recently upgraded to a Celeron N100 mini-pc. The fanless stick worked great. With hardware transcoding it was a lot more powerful than the Pi.
