What can the 'average Joe' start hosting, that will change their life?
I'm already hosting pihole, but i know there's so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

My experience has been that Nextcloud can do 1000 different things, and it sucks at all of them.
That's a little harsh but I definitely agree it doesn't tend to offer a better or equal alternative to any free options available. You're giving up a certain level of ease of use.
I tried setting up nextcloud. Just ended up creating a samba share instead.
I’m not getting Microsoft Office or Apple quality mail clients, or word editors, but the fact that it’s always available to me is enough to make the trade off worth it. YMMV
Been using nextcloud for about 5 years, right now I use it for storing files and nothing else, and it still kinda sucks at that.
Gonna use paperless for any documents I have in NC, after that there won’t be much left in there, just some old dot files. Maybe I’ll get rid of it entirely
