Developer runs home server stack on $10 OpenStick device

A hobbyist purchased a $10 OpenStick, a tiny ARM-based computer with 512MB RAM, 4 Cortex-A53 cores, 4GB eMMC storage and Wi-Fi/4G/GPS, and installed Debian on it. Despite its minimal specs, the device runs systemd and Podman, hosting services like CastSponsorSkip for ad-skipping on Google Cast and a custom fork of AdGuard Home for DNS-level ad and tracker blocking.
