@alex I litteraly have a spare pi5 sitting on the hobby electronics desk behind me.......
I sense a plan hatching!@pearofdoom like purely from a "I know where this is" thing it's handy but also it has another often overlooked upside.
If things really go to shit, you can probably travel and get the Pi/HDD/etc. and bring it home to do a faster restore than over the internet ever would likely be.

I'm wanting to disassociate from US based big tech.@pearofdoom made all the harder by them not allowing the complete removal of their "upload by default Photos app" (least on Apple devices). Can only "Remove from Home Screen"
They need to be forced to allow you to use another Photos app as the default.

@alex @pearofdoom @Phil_Tanner I run them separately, but for no good reason.
I personally prefer Wireguard-UI or something like that for a WG setup, instead of PiVPN, but either way, it's not too complex, and a Pi4 can easily handle wg/pi-hole/nas on a single device. -
