Got Homepod Mini for $30

Got a HomePod mini for just $30!

Any tips or tricks to get the most out of it?

I picked it up so cheap because I didnt want to spend $100 on an older model that might get refreshed in the next 2–3 months.

Made a homelab dashboard/control plane — looking for feedback

Hey r/homelab,

I’ve been working on a small open-source project for the last couple of days called Kyvora.

It’s basically meant to be a simple control plane/dashboard for a homelab. Nothing crazy, and definitely not trying to replace Proxmox, Grafana, NetBox, etc. I mostly wanted one place where I can keep track of my servers, agents, status, and some basic host info.

Right now it has:

  • a web dashboard
  • server inventory
  • agent registration
  • heartbeats / online-offline status
  • basic host facts like OS, CPU, RAM, disk, uptime, IP, etc.
  • audit logs
  • a small dashboard overview
  • Swagger/OpenAPI docs for the backend

The stack is Next.js, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, and a Go agent.

It’s still very early, but the basic flow works: create a server, enroll an agent, run it on the machine, and it starts reporting back.

I’d appreciate any feedback from people running actual homelabs. What would make something like this useful for you? I’m currently thinking about adding better metrics, notifications, Docker/service discovery, and maybe some basic automation later on.
