I moved to mini-pcs for home servers a while ago. They're silent, very powerful these days, and pretty affordable. I gave away my rack-mounts and haven't looked back. Pis for smaller/dedicated workloads.
All the other family's items are laptops, iPads, etc of various flavors.
Think, typical home usage, rather than anything that would benefit from a 10Gbps NIC.
Definitely my personal situation, but probably closer to the majority of the population than than the average HNer with a more dedicated pro gear.
