Uses
NAS/Home server
An SBC like an Rp4 or Odroid N2+ with some hard drives attached via USB3 can be a cost effective, energy efficient home server.
see Home server for more on using SBC as a Home server system.
PiHole/DNS adblocker
You can use an SBC as a DNS level adblocker and block ads on your entire home network.
Despite the the name, Pihole will work on more than just raspbery pi.
Video Game Emulator
SBCs make for great emulator boxes for retro games. Install retropie or similar, Download some roms, and get playing!
Kodi Client
Kodi is a fully featured home theater software. It works with plex, jellyfin, emby, etc and supports every codec under the sun.
OpenVPN Server
If you need to access your internal network from outside over the internet, you can use an SBC as an OpenVPN Server and encrypt your traffic to and from your home network. (You will also need a Dynamic DNS service and Domain).
Home Automation
SBCs can also be used in Home Automation tasks. Turn lights on/off, send security alerts to your phone, monitor your thermostat, and more.
