I use it for file storage, photo sharing, etc. An EC2 T2.medium with a gigantic EBS volume attached, and sandcats.io makes it really easy to set up a domain. I've written a couple of apps for it, there are a few things to know about what makes an app work well but the #sandstorm irc channel is really friendly and helpful.

Most unique use case of mine: my phone runs Owntracks which logs location data for walking around the city, vacations, etc. I obviously don't want _that_ on google, but am slightly more comfortable storing it in a self-hosted Sandstorm instance.
