Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Host a middle node
Keep in mind that none of the hardware you listed is great for hosting. It could work but I would go for somethinga little more modern. Something like a i5-7500 would be great. Get a router with vlans since you probably will want to segment the network.
For networking make sure you have a solid low latency reasonable bandwidth connection. I would do gigabit fiber since that will provide a decent amount of bandwidth while having low latency.
Also you could look into running a i2p node on the same machine since they both need volunteers.
