Great! I'm looking forward to getting a few of these. I currently have five Raspberry Pis running in my house, mainly for dashboards:
* Zigbee2MQTT in a closet in the middle of the house
* FullPageOS [1] dashboard on my bedroom TV
* FullPageOS dashboard on our living room TV
* FullPageOS dashboard in my office
* RetroPie running emulators and video screensaver on a CRT TV in my workshop

Sounds like a job for a Raspberry Pi with FullpageOS. Just create the HTML file and add JavaScript to reload it every X seconds (or have a DIV that refreshes the data every X seconds).

Or maybe you want to run something lightweight on ARM? FullPageOS is a stripped down version of armbian for the RasPi that only runs a fullscreen browser. But with tabs.

I’ve got one of mine showing album art for music I’m playing[1], one with an e-ink display that shows which subways are leaving soon near me, one running Homebridge for a variety of sensors[2], one for WireGuard and Pi-Hole, and one to run Klipper/Mainsail for my 3D printer. I guess these are all tinkering as well but they’ve basically been running 24/7 for a few years now!
