Thinking of self-hosting some basic tools; SearxNG, Bitwarden, Lemmy.
What kind of tools are you self-hosting right now? Which ones are easy to manage, which ones are awkward? 👀

Home assistant has plenty of use cases. it is not only controling devices but also a very powerful automation system. A couple of things I use it for:
-start my laundry only when I have enough solar power to power it
-notify me when my laundry is done
-track energy usage of many devices (heaters, washing and dishwashing machines, A/C,etc)
-let me know when to open or close my windows based on inside and outside temperature
-Force my water heater to turn on when I have solar power
-Expose non-homekit devices to homekit
Solar power? That’s pretty cool, do you use it exclusively or just to bring down energy bills?
Im still connected to the grid. The idea is to use as much as I can from my panels instead of the grid.
Fair the dream is to be completely off grid
Probably the same for a lot of people here to be honest
