To me, "my server is now..." implies there was some server, it used to do server things, but now it has been repurposed to do something else.

When I read the title, I literally thought "wow, I've seen a lot of people make servers out of old unused phones, but this is the first time I've heard someone make a phone out of an old unused server!"

Agreed, a more appropriate title might be “my server now runs on a phone”

A phone is my server now.

> By saying "my server is now ..." implies a change

Except the original title is "my server is a phone now", not "my server is now...".

Without reading the article, the original title made me think it was going to be related to voip or telephony somehow. Not using a phone as a server.

I meant it from the server’s perspective: VPS before, phone now. The article clears up any ambiguity pretty quickly.
