Nifty hardware, here's some stuff to do with it.

RPi builds

This is using them for stuff like Pihole and Wireguard.

Monitoring is good too.

Apt Cacher NG

Package cache, great for RPi because one of the upstream repos is horrible and slow.

Minimising

Stuff you can do to make it boot faster and run leaner. These notes are from running Fedora, but they're somewhat general.

disable wifi in config.txt (https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/43720/disable-wifi-wlan0-on-pi-3)
    dtoverlay=disable-wifi
    yum erase -y wpa_supplicant
disable selinux (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/13/html/Security-Enhanced_Linux/sect-Security-Enhanced_Linux-Enabling_and_Disabling_SELinux-Disabling_SELinux.html)
    selinux=0 on kernel comdline
    grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
disable firewalld
    systemctl disable firewalld --now
    dnf erase -y firewalld
