I’m a Tor relay operator. For years, I ran a Tor guard/middle relay, but I often ran into issues with certain services and websites that would blacklist my IP address within days of changing it. After dealing with that for a long time, I eventually got tired of the hassle and switched to running a Tor bridge instead, to help people bypass censorship in authoritarian countries. I think it’s a better fit for a home connection.

In the bios should be an option to enable (speaking the bonus)

Tor bridge/Snowflake , i2pd to help circumvent censorship on some countries

Tor bridge/snowflake, i2pd, syncthing relay, ipfs, pihole, wireguard…

Seedbox, tor bridge, i2pd node, pihole, wireguard…there are a lot of things you can run.
