What do people do with homelabs? I’ve always wondered. Is it anything of consequence or is it just like making a roadster in your garage?

I have two machines and NAS. Running around 50 docker containers. Including home assistant, adguard, wireguard, Vscode server, rss reader, change detection, romm, metube,vaultwarden, immich, caldav carddav server and bunch of custom applications I am working on. (Also hosting some websites).
It’s so much fun and helps me to own my data.
I run a home server but it is a single post-lease Dell mini PC I got for $50. The only times it goes above 5% CPU/GPU usage is when I'm building a project to deploy or transcode video.
I'm sure nobody needs this much compute for personal use (24/7), so roadster in a garage is a good analogy.
