Ive gotten hold of an intel nuc from around 2014, is it possible to use it for self hosting cloud services (audio streaming, ip security cam fotage reciving and storage, photo storage) or is it more suitable as an emulation box?

That’s exactly what I’m using for selfhosting, with 8 GB RAM and around 50 docker containers running, from FreshRSS to AdGuard Home, Immich, *arr + Jellyfin, and all that. No issues, runs like a charm off of Fedora.
