For those of you who use Raspberry Pi’s in your home environment, I’m curious as to what you use them for. What applications are you running on them? Do you have your Pi’s setup in a cluster?

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.

Only use it as a backup pihole now. Used to have an *arr stack on it, but needed a beefier pc

I have one 3B running adguard and a wireguard vpn server. Another 4B doing the same, plus kitchenowl and home assistant.

I bought a pi0 when I first started hosting things. It ran a pihole and piVPN instance for about 3-4 years before it died.

I would love to have another one, they are great pieces of hardware… but are just scalped to hell. I’ll keep buying old desktops and laptops with higher specs for cheaper until the costs go down.
