Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • added 4 Raspberry Pis (**1× Pi 5, 3× Pi 4**), a Cable Matters 24-port patch panel, CyberPower switched PDU and UPS, a 2-bay Synology NAS, and lastly I added a little Bitaxe Gamma just for fun. ... Pi 5: Primary DNS server running Pi-hole...
  • It’s a waist-level viewfinder camera (using a Mamiya C220 TLR finder), powered by a Raspberry Pi 5 and a 1" Sony IMX283 sensor.
  • The stack is (from top to bottom) GMKtec Nucbox M6 2x raspberry pi 4 (PoE hat) 2x raspberry pi 5 (nvme+Po3 hat) Tp-link gigabit 8 port PoE+ switch
  • Raspberry pi 5 is underrated device. I run dietpi os on mine. Jellyfin, Syncthing, immich and few other docker containers are deployed.
  • Raspberry Pi 5 - Running Pi-Hole & unboud(overkill ik)

Cons

  • So the Pi isn’t underrated, it’s overrated and overpriced.
  • HA got passed off to a Raspberry Pi 5 (you can't see it in the picture because it's on the shelf underneath) but for some reason after switching everything else I can't connect to it anymore.
  • Hardware: Raspberry Pi 5 NVMe Base Duo Beryl AX
  • I burned a ton of time fooling with the Raspberry Pi.
