Hello folks,

I have a mini PC which I use to host my website and some lightweight services. The mini PC idles at ~10% cpu usage. I was wondering if I can contribute 90% of CPU to the community. Thinking that maybe I can host other people’s websites for free.

How can I do that? Should I host some fediverse software? What do I do with this much processing power?

Thanks in advance!

    The Tor network relies on volunteers to donate bandwidth. The more people who run relays, the better the Tor network will be. The current Tor network is quite small compared to the number of people who need to use Tor, which means we need more dedicated volunteers like you to run relays.

      Pretty sure tor is a honeypot… Not sure the alternatives though

      Edit: maybe honeypot is not the right word, but at the nation-state level this won’t keep you anonymous I’m guessing. Good for normal people who want more privacy
