I have 2 older iPhones. A 7 Plus and a 9. Idk what to do with them. Is it possible to self host on iPhones?

Edit. Not iPhone 9, iPhone 8.

    There are loads of cheap Chinese mini-PCs based on Intel N95, N100 or N150, and they’d make the job easier than a phone or a Raspberry Pi. Spend a little more and you can get some pretty cheap AMD Ryzen-based models with much more capable CPUs.

      I don’t think that’s the point. It can be fun to use something like an old Phone to use it as a homeserver or the like. It’s a pet project and not about efficiency or being really useful.
