I am in a similar boat as the OP, albeit running a futurebit Apollo2.
It was obvious to me running such little hashrate at home was only worth having it solo mining , no daily rewards but entering the lottery every 10 minutes.
This way you still get a space heater but you also are more likely to run it irrespective of sat/dollar - as you may (unlikely but you can’t be in the lottery until you are competing) mine a block and reap the wards.
A bitaxe has done it, why wouldn’t you be in the lottery!
In that sense, I would rather keep the machine in a pool to earn some sats as a form of payment for the “decentralization work” my machine is doing. After all, you help the network, even if only slightly, by keeping it solid and get paid for the energy cost.
