I use RPI4 with the YunoHost platform and I think it’s positive. However YunoHost does not install Lemmy on the Raspberry.

One Pi Zero 2W runs NodeRed to control a few lights in the house. Another used to run Octoprint until it recently stopped responding. I haven’t gotten around to troubleshooting it yet.

I have a Raspberry pi 1b that runs adguard home and a VPN server

I’m running a Pi Zero W as a network extender!

I have a Pi 3 running Home Assistant. I also have two Pi Zeros that I have MP4 Museum installed.

I use MP4 Museum to run projected Halloween decorations mostly but it’s great to have a little box that will take a video file from a thumbdrive and dump it out the HDMI port on boot.

1 Pi 4 for two things

1. Download media over a persistent VPN that auto-moves to my NAS
2. Fun play toy as a dev box to test new tech and try to stay current and keep my Linux skills sharp since I use osx at work

1 ends up blocking 2

I really want to buy like 5 or 6 with temp sensors to put around the house to see how good my heating/ac are working, and confirm wifi strength

A Raspberry Pi 3 Model B

It’s connected to my 3d printer and runs octoprint allowing me to upload print jobs. and control the printer from my home network.
It serves up the Pi camera video stream.
It can also switch the printers light on and off.

No cluster setup.

I have a 4 meg Pi 4b running Pi-hole and Mini-DLNA. It’s rather under-utilized for those tasks, but it serves them quite well.

All the arrs, HA, pihole and a few smaller containers running on pi4. It was my gateway into the world of self hosting.

I use a Pi4 to run one of my HAproxy nodes. It does die once in a while from not enough power because my power brick is pretty old at this point. Other than that its great. I used to have a cluster of Pi3’s bit I’m transitioning cluster managment systems so they aren’t doing anything right now. I recently got a Lichee pi and that will most likely replace them once I get it all working.

I run PiHole on mine

I use a RPi3 for pihole and a RPi4 with debian + docker to host a bunch of stuff (in no spécific order): goaccess-for-nginxproxymanager

I run a Pi Zero W over wifi as my backup pi-hole so that clients can still connect if my main system is updating or down. Planning to get a more powerful one for OctoPrint.

I made a python soft that uses the pi camera and scans qr codes, and plays the playlist that’s on the eventual qr code. Just show the album and it plays.

But they have become so incredible expensive, and banana pis etc just doesn’t work that well, so I just stopped the whole Raspberry Pi craze.

Today I just collected a 55€ Lenovo thinkcenter (like 18cm squared x 3.5cm) with a quad core, 8GB/256GB. I think it will replace my next rpi quite well and when it breaks, I can get another one quite simply.

If I want to do more to the metal electronics stuff, I’ll just use a 2560 Mega or an esp8266 or similar.

pihole and an always-on syncthing node.
