Let’s keep it simple. I’m sure most of us are proud of Docker CPU cycles charted in Grafana via Prometheus, but I’m talking about the house as a whole.
My personal favorite is turning out to be Mealie.
I self-host a bunch of things for my personal use, but Mealie definitely takes the cake in terms of benefitting the entire household. I like the meal planner and the ability to hit the supermarket once to get all the necessary groceries for the week (I’ve never been able to achieve this before). I don’t think there is anything in my stack that even compares with the benefits my house gets of out Mealie.
My runner up would have to be any of the self-hosted media players (Plex, Jellyfin, etc.), but we also have Netflix and a bunch of streaming services, so not that impactful. Home Assistant would also be a close runner up, but it only provides great benefits for me, not the rest of the house. I think Immich will be on this list shortly, when it matures a bit more (are we able to import existing photos yet?)
Adguard is probably the one I like the most has it’s used by everyone but no one sees it and better for kids.
Otherwise i don’t see what mealy have to offer compare to tandoori and other similar apps ?
Most issue i have is with french recipe (we are french canadian) with theses tools vs books. It would be great if I could have Amazon tell me the recipe while cooking… Any that does that ?
