Considerations for a long-running Raspberry Pi
I've been running a bunch of Pi's for years now, and the biggest problem I've had is the Pi itself dying: 24/7 usage is hard on a small device. I've also found that stable power is essential, and to that end I've always used 5v 3a branded power cubes, plugged into a pure sine wave UPS. Choice of micro-SDHC cards is important and I ended up getting ATP industrial cards (https://www.atpinc.com/products/industrial-sd-cards) - expensive but really long-lived. Finally, using RPi-clone (https://github.com/billw2/rpi-clone) on a regular basis has been a life-saver. I clone to Sandisk Extreme micro-SDHCs and can recover from an outage in minutes.

Homebridge on RPI - failover/backup setup ideas? Iβm trying to introduce a 2nd RPI which automatically syncs from from main RPI all files and can failover Homebridge in case my main RPI dies? How have you setup your one cluster

Whole home sync'd rpi audio w plex, spotify, airplay
You want SnapCast. You'd run snapserver on your Linux box and snapclient on your Pi's. Snapserver has support for Airplay (via shairport-sync) and Spotify (via librespot). I recommend using MPD for your music library, as I don't think PlexAmp can output audio in a way that's useful for snapserver.

Whole Home Audio - Design Help
To replace it, I've purchased in-ceiling speakers and a Control 4 Amp (C4-16AMP3-B) which I can control via the network. I plan on using shareport-sync for AirPlay and librespot for spotify as the sources to play music. 90% of the use for my whole home audio is for music.

Need Help Troubleshooting - PiHole just stops functioning
I have Shairport-Sync running as well as Plex (I don't use Plex though, it is just sitting there.) So some services related to them may show up.
I think this Pi runs of an SD card but I also have an SSD hooked up to it for Plex. I don't ever use Plex though, so I don't think that is causing issues. I also have Shairport-Sync running, but I think that is fairly lightweight as well.
- Is there a project similar to shairport-sync to serve a chrome cast server?

Ask HN: What's on Your Home Server?
I host a Mastodon instance, a Matrix server (using synapse and coturn), a Minecraft server for the kids, a server for an esoteric mod of Ultima Online called Ruins & Riches, and a Web server. I use Nginx for reverse proxying and Wireguard for VPN.
I also run a bunch of Raspberry Pis around the house connected to stereos to stream audio using AirPlay (with https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync).

Breaking out my old Pi 1b. Anything lightweight I can put it to work on?
I run shairport-sync on mine with a USB DAC (AirPlay). Runs great.

Modernizing my 1980s sound system
Yes, you wouldn't get this running on an existing smart speaker (without first rooting it and some serious hacking).
If you'r in the Apple ecosystem and are using AirPlay with your smart speaker(s), it's however possible to also play synchronized audio across to your own DIY speaker setup, using another open source project.
https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync
Or you could of course choose to only use your old dumb speakers with this, and they will pop up as easily selectable sound output devices on all Apple devices connected to your network.
Or combine it (and librespot[2], owntone[3]...) with Snapcast to create a virtual speaker for your whole house that shows up everywhere.

Show HN: HiFiScan, a Python app to optimize your loudspeakers
This looks cool. I'm not sure if they are intending to go all the way to room correction but it can really do wonders. A good while back my music setup used filters calculated by an open source FIR tool with playback driven by an older version of Shairport (emulating an AirPort express) using BruteFIR as a convolver. Fiddly to set up but it sounded really good.
