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?

      Tailscale only requires one app install, on a device in your network.

      That device can be configued as a subnet router (providing local network access to Tailscale connections).

      Then using either the Funnel or Serve option, remote devices can access your Tailnet without a client installed.

      Just an option, another way of achieving similar results (though with different capabilities) as Cloudflare.

      Edit: Funnel enables non-TS clients to access TS resources. Serve enables foreign TS clients to access your TS network.
