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.

      I might have to look into this. It says it supports the app that our ‘smart’ garage door opener uses which for some reason I am unable to login to ever since I switched my phone to GrapheneOS (literally the only app I have had trouble with…other than the pizza hut app. Btw, highly recommend GrapheneOS if you own a Pixel phone, or are in the market for a pixel phone)

      Edit: If I say, for example, decided to mess around with this (I need an excuse to mess around with docker containers anyway) how easy is it to change the port. Because I’m already using port 8123 for the map for my minecraft server

        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.
