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?

    Ones dedicated to being an openvpn host for my phone to be permanently connected to (pi4), and a second runs pihole + nginx as a reverse proxy into the rest of my http(s) services (pi3b+). The vpn keeps my phone behind pihole when mobile + gives access to lan only services.

    The proxy being separate lets me take any of the other machines offline and the proxy will serve a ‘service unavailable’/‘maintenance’ page instead of just timing out the connection. It serves 2-3 8mbps video streams regularly without issue.
