I have an old laptop lying around and I have been meaning to self host some stuff on it but never got around to it.

My biggest limitation is that I only have WIFI and I do not control the network. It’s basically your default residential WIFI network.

The only thing I actually need is self-hosted cloud. What can I utilize this laptop for?

    Switch to Resilio Sync, it has a sync-on-demand feature called Selective Sync, where you can browse the share and select files to sync now.

    It’s a feature of Resilio I really like, but I rely on Syncthing for daily use because Resilio kills phone memory (it stores the index in ram), and it’s much more resource intensive on my file server.
