Hey yall, I want to get into self-hosting. I want to start from hosting on a raspberry pi, and I am just wondering if yall have any recommendations (I’ve never hosted anything before, but have experience in linux and programming). Sorry if it’s bit of a stupid question.

      I just started with HA as well and it’s a massive rabbit hole haha. So far set up thermostats for rooms, motion sensors with smart lights and integration with Frigate for my security cams. Also set up a tablet with HA which displays all our photos from the NAS as screensaver.

        Add outside environmental conditions from your national provider and purpleair, and you can figure whether it’s better to run HVAC or open a window. I have an aspirational project to motorize some windows.

        Depending on what method you use, you would either have to change the configuration for port mapping in a file or when you run the container. It’s simple enough, and you should be able to figure it out quite easily. If not, help for Docker related stuff is never far away.
