A basic, local text-to-speech app using home assistant's piper would be great. Feed it a document and have it read the document to you, highlighting along the way.

I currently use nextcloud + todo.txt

I don't have my todos in my calendar (I think that may be what you're asking for?), but both are solid systems.

I sync my todo.txt files via nextcloud. I use sleek on my desktop and ntodotxt on my phone.

Also, notifications. I'm a fairly forgetful person, so I set up notifications to let me know if I left windows open or devices on before I go to bed or leave for work.

Like the other commenter said, that is correct. For SSH, I set up a VM as my SSH bastion or jump host. I connect to that, and the SSH from that to any other machine on the network.

you need a reverse proxy.

FreshRSS is the tool for that

Do you just use podcasts on your phone? If you have an Android phone, AntennaPod, while not self-hosted, works very well and is FOSS. There are other options to "self-host podcasts" to varying degrees:

  • PodHoarder: mentioned in another comment, which could be piped into AntennaPod, but I find that a bit redundant for me

  • AudioBookshelf: a fantastic self-hosted audiobook server, and an okay podcast server, but is focused around streaming from your server to your listening device, and I prefer to download on wifi to listen later (it was pretty clunky for that workflow).

  • GPodderSync: barely supported at this point and missing too many features to be useful in my opinion, but a neat backend for AntennaPod and other players to sync to some degree.

Bonus: the creators of AntennaPod and other FOSS podcasting software are working on a replacement for GPodderSync here: https://github.com/OpenPodcastAPI

EDIT: for RSS in general, I use FreshRSS, which uses the g-reader API to sync across multiple apps. It's awesome.

I host wikis for local advocacy work. I plan to host other static sites, and I'm building a tool to get better transit schedules in a simple webpage. Hosting Mobilizon is on my list to do as well.

If your budget is as cheap as possible than the only answer is a 12TB HDD in a USB enclosure for your Raspberry Pi.

What is "huge storage"? What is your budget?

https://iotawatt.com/ is what I plan on using shortly

my current usage:

on my desktop:

  • RX 7900 XTX
  • Wifi 6 adapter
  • 10Gbit SFP+ NIC

on my proxmox server:

  • RTX 3080 (passed through to Debian VM)
  • 16 drive HBA (passed through to TrueNAS VM)
  • GT 730
  • 10Gbit SFP+ NIC

I've also used USB PCIe cards to get more USB controllers for picky USB devices like USB capture cards and audio interfaces.
