As a complete beginner, what can I do with a raspberry pi 4b?

I'm basically completely new to networking and currently setting up a NAS. I have this raspberry pi 4b that I got but now can't think of a use case for it...

Any ideas of something that is very useful to host or have running on the pi4b?

Edit: I'm a complete beginner, and will use trunas on another server with jellyfin so my raspberry pi gets blown raspberries atm ๐Ÿ‘Ž

For the NAS, what do you use for storage? Do you have an external drive hooked up via USB or something else?

    Yes, I bought a rocketfish drive enclosure years back, so dropped a drive in that, and attached vias USB. Never had issues with it.

    Assign as data drive in Openmediavault.

    Openmediavault had some plugins and settings to set folders2ram so that the initial SDcard OS is writting to RAM instead of constant writes to the SDcard.
