Indeed, tailscale/wireguard/zerotier are excellent options to keep only the bare minimum (or even nothing!) exposed to the world.

Whats up with Snowshoe Siamese that make them compulsively knead biscuits on soft things like that? Mine does exactly the same and he's all serious business, if I pet him while he's doing that he gets miffed af

Maybe a bit of a low tech solution, but I have an older RPI 3B running a second instance of PiHole.

I just checked and at least on LineageOS 21 (android 14) you indeed can add specific apps (and notification categories, eg calls) to bypass do not disturb

No idea if its better, its the thing I tried and it was pretty seamless to set up. With my aging hardware and AMD GPU, I have been pretty much sitting in the sidelines with this whole LLM thing

Tasks.org and logseq here, ended up being the simplest way after bouncing off grocy and other overly detailed systems.

Tip: before going through with hosting NextCloud, you could get /e/ accounts, they don't give much space but since it's just rebranded NextCloud, you can try it out and see if it works for you.

Currently we use several tasks boards so chores are separate by type (shopping list, maintenance, bills, chores) and logseq's journal on the app makes it flexible to take notes or whatever you need (audio notes, pics, links, etc)

Holy crap thanks for the detailed walkthrough! Im going to set it up as soon as I can!!

Willdrick OP ,

While I was researching I found out about Squeezebox, as there are people using it in combination with HomeAssistant. Both solutions you and @cfi provided seem pretty doable, and I've already been tinkering with Mopidy on armbian. Snapcast is something I've never heard of, and I'm definetly going to tinker around it, I'd love to be able to sync several speakers around the house, specially for parties and gatherings.

That being said I think they are a bit overkill for the usecase, and I'm looking for something even simpler, maybe repurposing the guts of a cheap BT speaker I have lying around, see if I can find somewhere on the PCB where I can tap line level audio output and solder it directly inside the amp/sub box, along with a small power supply to run without batteries. (I know there are ready-made BT modules for this, but where's the fun in that!)

It's been over a year and a half since I built this setup, and to this day I kick myself for not building everything on top of proxmox. That being said, I'm on a rather limited hardware, so I don't know how much better would be to migrate to it (R3 3200G, 6gb of ram)
