If you already have a server and don’t need more resources then just leave it. No need to waste more power “just because”.
That said you could hang onto it until you have a need. You never know when a machine will shit the bed and having a half top is useful.

Maybe you could set it up to run for a family member? I’m always trying to recruit more self-hosters.
