As far as I know, there's still a strong but small community on Usenet for discussions still

As far as server/desktop stuffs, many have had decent success running them on things like old laptops and raspberry pis to decent success. Won't be as powerful, but if it's just you and a spouse and maybe kids or something it should be just fine
