I'm already hosting pihole, but i know there's so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks all! I've got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!

Look for z-wave or zigbee plugs. You'll need to buy a hub, but unless NZ has banned the protocol, it should get you smart switches, outlets, thermostats and more.

    Yeah, I've recently bought a HA SkyConnect & some plugs from AliExpress and they work well. Whenever I'll be in Australia I'll get some Ikea stuff too. Locally the only Zigbee option is Hue which I find too expensive.
