I think it would be cool to self host a thin client system for my household. One main server with everything and I can manage it to ensure that it's working as it should. Thin clients that myself and fam would interact with for regular use.

Actually, I think I just want an easy way to have my pc in another room so I can use it without having to deal with the heat and noise.

Regardless, the important part is that it's in my house and under my control. The lack of control is why previous thin client scams were scams and sucked.
