I’ve just gotten 2 old Dell Optiplex 9020 with 16gb ram and an i5 4th gen from work (MT and SFF), I already got 1 SFF unit with the same specs running a bunch of stuff. Now I’m a little unsure of what to do with these new PCs/servers, since I’ve been using only one system for so long.

I’ve already installed an OS on them; the MT one is running Proxmox. The reason behind that is, I have a feeling that when my creative juices start flowing, I might need a VM for something, or maybe I want to try LXC containers. On the SFF, I’ve got Ubuntu installed, running my preferred stack management system, Dockge.

So if you have any idea of what I could do with these 2 new systems, yell it out i wanna hear it. I want this to be more of a learning opportunity rather than just to follow anyone blind. Also if there are any questions feel free to ask
