I’m quite a newbie to the self-hosted world, and I was wondering if a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 could be enough to start something and have “reasonable” performance.

I’m interested in exploring a self-hosted torrenting machine with a jellyfin server, a pi-hole instance and something like nextcloud for cloud drive and foto backup.

Is it worth trying, or it’s better I just wait to get my hands on better hardware to begin with?

Edit: thank you for answering me, you confirmed my expectations!

    I don’t think it has enough ram for even 1 of those applications (except pihole), not to mention it’ll be hard setting up an external drive on it.

    best get some kind of 2nd hand thin client, it’ll be much much better.
