This is such a great read. I’m a long time raspberry pi enjoyer, but we do have so many sbc units out in the world discarded. I’d love to tinker with this.
I took a long break from my electronics tinkering because it always just seemed to be ‘use modular proprietary stuff for your DIY’ and ‘order Chinese bits for projects you’ll never build’ plus the mindless automation of everything. I will start turning whatever old stuff I have around into net-worthy stuff at some point (just started to learn about self-hosting, so treading slowly here).
