Hi friends. I'm a newbie in self-hosting, though I've been managing (virtual) linux servers at work for a couple of years. I'm completely ignorant on the hardware choices out there, hopefully you can point me to the right direction.

Here are my requisites:

Low power consumption, I plan to have it connected 24/7 and I'm kinda concerned on how much it will impact the electricity bill
Ethernet port, preferably gigabit but whatever
Graphical performance is not important as I don't plan to connect it to any display. As long as I can ssh into it, I'm good.

Services I plan on installing, for starters:

casaOS
pi-hole, or equivalent
Home Assistant
Kitchen Owl (nice to have)
Paperless-ngx (nice to have)

I live in europe and my budget is around 80 euros or so. Thanks in advance!

Shout out for ODROID, their product revision cycles take too long (lmao why are they still selling a 32-bit chip that was an iffy investment back in 2013), but when they drop new stuff, it tends to be great.
