Since rpis have been almost impossible to find, I’ve been looking around for alternatives for some local self hosted services like home assistant. A lot of boards seem to talk about GPU, GPIO pins, etc. But I really just want a single board, fanless (low power), decent CPU and RAM, ethernet.

Any recommendations?

      I use a pi for servers because of the assumption that it uses very little power to run (compared to say, an old unused laptop), is that not the case?

        Sure, but I just told you I’m running over 20 servers. Try running 20 raspberry pi’s 😀

        My resources are being shared for around 20W of power.
