Well now you’ve got me trying BSSG :p

Nice. Haven’t tried IpFire but gonna give it a look. Been on OpnSense for a couple years now and have been enjoying it.

Small static websites. You can get surprisingly performant and easily managed websites if you don’t actually need the overhead of common frameworks. For instance giving your kid a real domain they can update and show to their friends.

On the slightly more resource intensive side, OpnSense has been a game changer for me.
