An old phone beats a Raspberry Pi for everything except the one thing that matters
When someone mentions a tiny, cheap, always-on piece of hardware, their mind usually goes to a single-board computer (SBC) like a Raspberry Pi, Arduino Uno, or Orange Pi. Generally, it is the right choice, too. I was on the same path a few weeks ago. I was looking to buy a Raspberry Pi 5 to host my DNS server. Before getting it, I looked at the old Android phone living in my drawer and decided to use it as a DNS server.
