I have a water container I need to take care of in my house. An ultrasonic sensor hooked to my raspberry 3b uploads the collected data to my vps that later serves an html through Flask to show the water level. It has a few alarms so that I can take action at the appropriate time. The ultrasonic sensors HC-SR04 suck and I have to replace them quite frequently. Other then that it works really well.

I currently have Pi-hole and Unbound running on my pi4

I have a pi zero running as a doorbell camera, alongside a couple more CCTV cameras, and a pi4 running in kiosk mode connected to my motioneye server displaying said camera streams on a crappy old TV in my home office.

I run AdGuard Home (mostly for malware domain blocking and DNS caching) on my home server, and the Pi acts as a secondary DNS server. I use AdGuardHome-Sync to keep the config in sync across the two.

I have four Pis. They're running Pihole DNS & DHCP, a reverse proxy, and torrent clients. I don't have them setup as a cluster, been meaning to look into it but I don't want to add complexity so I'm putting it off.

I have Home Assistant on one and Kodi (Libreelec) on another

I've got several for random little tasks that crop up, but main use is for the conbee II I have running the zigbee network for all the smart lights. I've got a UPS hat using some old 26650 cells for battery backup, mostly so that if power cuts off I don't run into any issues with the setup and the rare cases where I have to take the power off the server rack for whatever reason. RPi has actually been rock solid for couple years now so no issues with that side, wife approval factor has likewise been high

Also got a Turing Pi but haven't had a change to play with it too much yet. For most everything else I'm running a docker and VMs in TrueNAS, but would probably change that setup at some point..

I have a single Raspberry Pi 3b as a local file/media server running Jellyfin. I'm also running BOINC and seeding torrents of various Linux distributions. External HDD for storage, plus a thumb drive for the local media and another for the torrents so it only has to spin up when someone's actually using it.

It's not super-fast by any means, but it's fast enough to listen to music over my LAN, which is the main thing I need it to do quickly. Though eventually I plan on setting up a better NAS on something with faster I/O.

use it for home assistant. I'm astonished because my test install from years ago on a pi that's around 7 years old is going with no intervention aside from updates. it's crazy robust.

for a while my laptop was slow and I needed a test local environment rebuilding with webpack so I set up a newer pi that ran the Dev servers so my laptop didn't choke. I've got a better laptop now.

One runs Home Assistant (Pi4), and an older one runs RetroPi (Pi3) for my arcade cabinet.

I have another Pi3 that I used to use as a Steam Streaming device to put my PC games on the projector.

I've got one as a Pi Hole, one as a Kodi box, and a few others I keep around as basically electronic multitools.

One for home assistant, one for very basic network services (dns, auth, dhcp) that I want up all the time even if I have to shut down the router+firewall. If I have to upgrade the firewall box I don't want to be unable to print, or use smart home stuff.

I'm only using Pi 4 hardware:

• OpenWrt gigabit routers with SQM, multiple locations
• Home Assistant Yellow
• NAS with RAID1 (mirror), deprecated

Home Assistant setup, along with media hosting for a hard drive full of all my music and movies.

I used a pi 3 to host a Foundry server (TTRPG software).

I use Docker to simplify things, since I run two instances of it. Simple port forwarding setup within the docker container. the main reason I used a pi instead of my computer is so my players could access their dnd stuff all the time.

I stopped because I switched ISPs and they won't let me port-forward. My vpn supports it but the latency isn't ideal. I host the same thing through a cheap server now.

One for pihole

I used one in the past for Unify Controller but it broke

Another one is a USB wifi hub to control my telescope equipment remotely.

I use a pi 3 to host backups from my main server via restic. I also have a pi 4 that I use as a VPN server

Yes, a Pi 4 with 2GB RAM. It is running Navidrome (music server) with my music collection on a 2TB SSD connected to it. Works great.

The energy consumption at around 3-4 W, pretty neat!

K3's cluster, Gitlab, Ghost, Nextcloud, Elastic stack, and some other stuff.

Yes.

The jobs they do:

LAN print server

Running OctoPi for a 3D printer

PiHole and VPN for the home LAN

Experimenting with OpenHab

Portable Kodi box.

And a crappy mass storage server via USB.

Using a Pi3b to run AdGuard Home and a TailScale subnet router.

I've got another Pi3b running Octoprint/Klipper for a 3d printer, but I'm currently migrating that to Mainsail running on an old SFF PC so I can run multiple printers with Klipper off the same PC.

The rest of my stack is on an actual server running UnRaid with like 50tb raw storage.

I will say that TailScale has been annoying asf with their subnet router setup not actually forcing the correct DNS for AdGuard Home so I can have ad-blocking while away from home. I had to move back to a pure Wireguard setup directly on my router for DNS to work properly.

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 have 3 of the 3rd generation ones to mess around on.

I have a 2 running teamspeak for gaming with my wife (separate rooms and don't want to yell) and pihole. And a 3 hooked to a 3d printer running octoprint.

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
