I put a fair bit of work into making the foss tech things in my house _just work_. For instance, I run a tablet on my kitchen counter with the homeassistant interface. It displays photos when not in use. My piHole setup (multiple of them for redundancy) can be paused from the homeassistant dashboard. There's a different dashboard for access to Plex or other web UIs. Everything runs behind a reverse proxy with pretty URLs and authentication is from a single source usually. The one bit of magic is the vpn for when you're out of the house. So it goes.
