I just recently started playing around with an old pc as my homeserver and am curious of any recommendations for lesser known self hostable foss software that you would recommend

Personally, as well as NextCloud, I'd host instances of LibreX, CloudTube, PiHole, Gitea, XMPP, and CryptPad.

If it's fun you're after, though, why not try hosting a Minecraft server? And how about XMPP or Matrix, to keep in touch with friends?

What's your xmpp server of choice?

I haven't really looked into it much, as I don't currently have enough time or money to self-host anything, but I'd probably go with Prosody to start with.
