CI/CD for iOS, MacOS, and React Native builds. Right now the pricing for Mac instances for builds via Github, Gitlab, Circle, etc are ludicrous. For a certain developer velocity, these instances will probably be much, much cheaper than running builds through the CI/CD SaaS providers.

Sorry, but dedicated hosts are expensive AF, it is not a virtual machine, you pay for the hardware.

$26 per day according to TC, for a full Mini (6 core i7/32 GB RAM). If you do enough that you can get high utilization that is cheaper than the CI services. (e.g. travis wants close to double for 2 vCore/8GB VMs) EDIT: On the other hand, renting a physical machine at Macstadium is a lot cheaper, so you'll want to have the AWS integration or some flexibility...
