Install postmarketOS on Android phone and use Docker as a home server

You can add custom charge cycling on a schedule if using the Chargie app. One could for example have it normally stay at 50% but do a full charge/discharge cycle weekly.

Overall though, it would probably make the most sense to physically remove the battery from any phone used as a dedicated webserver, and then have it connected to an external UPS instead.

Also cute. That's pretty excellent. I think I'd like to bring such a rig down to 10% and up to 90% once a month or so, based on what I think I know.

And yes, agreed absolutely: It safer to pull the battery, and not particularly difficult or detrimental to do so for the kinds of applications I'm envisioning here that involve a disused phone doing server-ish stuff.
