I want to host my own server, but I would like to know what I should know?

I thought that I could run the server on an old and not very good computer. Is not it?

You can use old machines for all kinds of servers, I’ve got a stack of old laptops running a Kubernetes cluster, but synapse would push some of them possibly further than they can go so I have it on my more powerful NAS, and even then it isn’t exactly speedy at times
