Reply to comment by cumlord in Ideas for hosting services (on low end hardware) that would benefit the I2P network? by Veritas0

It's a Raspberry PI 4 that I got for dirt cheap, 1GB LPDDR4-3200 SDRAM with a Broadcom BCM2711, Quad core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC @ 1.8GHz (I know not the best specs) I was thinking of trying OpenBSD on it, wanted to dip my toes in it.

you can run some stuff off of that, i'd look for things that are light on memory requirements.

  • IRC servers run light, probably other chat servers minus matrix
  • java/i2p+ can host personal sites and have plugins for blog and zzzot open tracker with no extra overhead. You can reduce the wrapper memory usage. new zzzot uses less memory so i think if you give the router 256mb it should do fine, but can't confirm
  • js-free filehost or pastebin
  • books
  • radio
  • privacy frontends: we have lots of reddit ones now, how about a more rare one like libermbd or soundcloak

I have no experience with mixing Raspberry Pi and OpenBSD, but my default go-to is Void Linux, in my experience the best operating system you can install on a RPI, Void has a really fast package manager, even on slow SD cards. One of my redundant I2P routers is running on an RPI4 like yours, though I got 4GiB of RAM, works like a charm.
