Hardware help! Looking to upgrade my home server

Linux will continue to be a frustrating geeks-only club unless and until somebody starts getting paid to work on it

Coreboot importance?

How important is it to have something like coreboot for your firmware/BIOS on your router? I run pfsense on a mini PC router from aliexpress that has an Intel n100 cpu in it, so I guess the bios is intel as well. I self host a few things on an unraid machine, some apps are exposed to the internet through cloudflare tunnels.
