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?

I used a pi 3 to host a Foundry server (TTRPG software).

I use Docker to simplify things, since I run two instances of it. Simple port forwarding setup within the docker container. the main reason I used a pi instead of my computer is so my players could access their dnd stuff all the time.

I stopped because I switched ISPs and they won't let me port-forward. My vpn supports it but the latency isn't ideal. I host the same thing through a cheap server now.

Incase you wanna go back to port forwarding, you could try ipv6! Just gotta make sure all your party members computers have ipv6 enabled

Dunno enough about ipv6, wouldn't my ISP still need to allow it?

That's my understanding, and there's no option in their locked-up router to enable it, for ipv6 either.
