I was a long time legacy LR user before abode went to a cloud system. I currently have the LR/PS photography package with 20GB of storage. I'm constantly running out of space.

I would like to set up a system where I store files at home on a Linux server but edit/access the files on my home laptop. Is this possible?

Anyone with any advice?

Running out of space WHERE? And are you running out of space from Lightroom Classic (LrC icon) or from Lightroom (Lr icon)?

Running out of space on CC. Id like to set up a linux server on an old PC and store the files on a external SSD. Then access and edit the files on LrC on a windows Laptop. Hope that makes sense

Please provide the answer to my other question: "are you running out of space from Lightroom Classic (LrC icon) or from Lightroom (Lr icon)?"

So are you saying that you'd like to stop using Creative Cloud storage and stop using Lightroom, and replace it with this server setup where all your photos will be stored on this server, and access all photos via Lightroom Classic?
