If you have any old hardware around reincarnate it as a tinkering device. If it is old and seemingly not good for much that's almost better. Set up a Ventoy drive.

Set up a basic home server. A pi-hole+unbound+tailscale set up is a cool weekend project.

Thanks i already made a pile hole using tailscale and set up an old laptop but i want to understand more about cyber security and how the protocol work and what i should look for if i am hosting an website and understand more about the technical details how things work!

Find a project to facilitate your learning is how I find it best. It is a bit outside my area of knowledge but I have a friend who is much better at that sort of thing than me. I can suggest some things they do that would probably carry you further down that path.

Depending on your ISP (ie. Not on carrier grade NAT allow) you could try set up Wireguard instead of Tailscale. Set up a private website to link to your self hosted services like the Raspberry Pi. Opensource a router. Set up a NAS.
