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.

RaspberryPi Now Playing Dashboard using last.fm data and Airplay receiver
I use shairport-sync for airplay (https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync), complete instructions via: https://blog.adena.dev/blog/apple-airplay-on-raspberry-pi-in-7-easy-steps

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.

Are there any work arounds for the Netflix new "household" system?
How you connect to your modem will depend on the device you are using, but for windows laptops as an example you download the OpenVPN program and input your modem details there, much like you would any other vpn service. I think there would be some guides on youtube. https://openvpn.net/

gluetunvpn docker help
It is likely an issue with the 'cipher' options, if any, that are in your ".opvn" file. This is telling you that the opvn setting is not finding a matching cipher it is allowed to use. The fix per the message would be to add the Servers cipher to your options. https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-gui/issues/381 https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/master/doc/man-sections/cipher-negotiation.rst

My Installed App as Developer
OpenVPN is a VPN client that I used primarily for work. We used VPN to connect to the dev server and we are using VPN. I also sometimes used that to open websites that got blocked in Indonesia like Reddit.

minexmr2.com updated to p2pool v3.1, monerod v0.18.2.0, and ready for Mar 18 p2pool (not monero) hardfork
I connect all the servers with secure OpenVPN private network. And block unused ports anywhere with ufw.

A little server help would be appreciated (a bit out of my depth)
Ensure remote access is by VPN only like the site-to-site with Ubiquitis gear, WireGuard or OpenVPN and there could be a paid option I just don't know.
- VPN with Homehub 4000?
-
Self-hosted VPN that can run through HTTPS?
In OpenVPN server config you just go with port 443 and use proto set to TCP. The example server.conf is here. Check lines 32 and 36

Daily General Discussion - November 28, 2022
Not being facetious, but solution #1 is to consider upgrading your router to one that does have a native VPN server, such as the TP-Link Archer AX55. It's the easiest and most convenient solution. Solution #2 would be to install OpenVPN on a dedicated machine (e.g., a Raspberry Pi) and port forward to it. You mentioned having a NAS; it likely has a VPN server package available. Here's one for Synology.
