I'm always at awe when people do this for their home like I've been managing infra for almost two decades and don't have even quarter of the things some people install and manage. It looks overwhelming to be honest.
I've been managing infrastructure for over 3 decades and I don't have this.
I have something like homegrown pihole (dnsmasq with block lists) , jellyfin, qbittorrent and nfs/smb share. Everytime when such a post appears there is this irrational desire to create cool monitoring and homepage and homeassistant. Never materialises into anything, after all there is always emacs that requires tinkering if needed. :3
I can recommend Heimdall as a quick scratch for that itch. Not big on monitoring, but a great landing page for almost no effort.
Get crackin'. LOL For me, it's a toss up between Homarr & Homepage. I went with Homarr which can do some of the metrics like Homepage, but Homepage has all the candy.
A lot of professional chefs I know, when at home, either don’t cook much or eat garbage. Might the same principle haha.
If it’s your job, it’s probably the last thing you want to do when you’re off the clock.
