I have a unused RPi4 (the 8Gig one) running DietPi. I did use it as a playground but ever since I am renting a Hetzner machine for (playground) stuff that I want web accessible, I don’t have particular use for the Pi.
I am currently running (outdated) Home Assistant on it but there isn’t much I can connect it with (yet, getting the flashable/compatible ikea smart lightning zigbee? bridge thingy is on my bucket list). Obviously I do have a pihole there.
Shoot me any other ideas I could run there. Some kind of monitoring of my rented infra would be cool (I already have uptime kuma on the dedi hetzner box). One idea I had was if there are some OSS security scanning “daemons” I could use on to monitor my other infra.
Thanks a lot!

Vaultwarden is super, but I’d be hesitant to run it on a Raspberry Pi unless I had good backups in place. I’ve always run stuff off MicroSD cards with Pi’s, but I’m sure there’s a way to use real drives which would make me feel better.
You could just plug an external drive in it
I’m running mine off an SSD using an M.2 to USB adapter
