I feel old, I don't understand 90% of words in this thread lol.
I just have kodi on Libreelec with a jellyfin plugin on my rpi4 and even that struggled with overheating at times. So I run most stuff on my pc instead. I'm tempted to try the portainer to get some experience with docker tho.
Really? I've seen threads with people claiming to run dozens of services on it. What do you recommend instead, just any rpi OS and installing them like I would on regular linux?
I have k3s running on my Pi cluster and have dozens of services running on them. USB drives for the lot of them.
Sure! I’m using ansible to manage the hosts, install k3s, and deploy the manifests. I’m looking at switching to nixos for reproducibility purposes. I have a couple Pi 4’s, and a handful of Pi 3Bs. Each one is booting off USB drives (Pi 4s have SSDs and others have thumb drives). Then I have an old computer I turned into a NAS server that is hosting NFS for the PVs of each pod. Then I have a rackmount gigabit switch, and I set up tailscale on each node, and reference everything by the tailnet names. Works really well and I have complete access while I’m away from home.
Edit: oh yea my NFS server is also hosting a docker server. My ansible stages the docker containers to the local docker server then each pod pulls from the local server to save on bandwidth and if internet goes down I can still do everything locally.
