What's a fun project to work on with the Raspberry Pi? (lemmy.ml)

I thought about using my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ as a NextCloud server, but research told me it would be too slow to be useful. Any cool useful projects I can do, without any extra purchases? I'm extremely low on money currently.

Interested in this too. I have mine lying around being useless, and idk what to do with it. For now, I don't wanna host anything accessible out of my network (don't want to deal with opening ports and securing stuff well), so it has to be some home assistant thing (dunno what, I don't really have smort appliances) or maybe a media center (?). Possibly a little seedbox, but it would be rather slow ig.

Any suggestion is more than welcome ;)

I host a Kiwix instance. I figure that if the Internet goes down, at least I'll have an offline copy of English Wikipedia I can read.
