    Lewis, I liked the overview style video. I had heard of the Zimaboard, but hadn't given it any attention. So this video filled in the blanks through a content provider that I know and trust. What a cool device. Gunna get one!

    I'd love to see a video dedicated to only Home Assistant on this board. Adding Zigbee & Z-Wave dongles, configuration and setup of a few devices. Check whether there are issues with port/device collision (example: Zooz Z-Wave dongle with Sonoff Zigbee, both having the same SiLabs name)

    Great video. Love your content, this was definitely more chilled than some(most) of your other ones but a nice change

    This looks super slick! I have unraid on my home server, and it does all of this, but it requires a lot more user input to install apps. This seems like a great way for anyone to just all the basics up and running. Really cool!

    Thanks for the casual unboxing and overview Lewis! Great video. 😁

    Since you love firewalls you should do a video on your firewall and general network setup! I've been hoping you'd do just that for a while. I'm a "former" network geek that really needs to up my home setup and would love to see how someone with a home automation has setup their network.

    Thank you for another great video. I did enjoy this side. Food for thought: Maybe try doing 2 channels like Smart Home Solver / Reed's Smart Home did. One he pretty much sticks to reviews and the other is deeper dives. I do enjoy your full reviews but it is nice to see this side as well and would be a great way to learn about new products and release in a chill setting

    Loved the video like the more relaxed style, informative and I will definitely be buying this.

    This thing looks great. I'd like to get one and definitely would like to see a full setup tutorial for sure! I'm looking into something for my new house and want a home server and I'd love to see if this thing would be easier/better than a full custom build

    Loved the video and the hardware preview. Really nice and chilled. Would like to see what this device will do under some load (normal home use)

    Thanks very good job you covered all the things I was interested in. Especially the operating system. I also think it’s a compelling thing to buy as well.

    I rarely comment on videos but I'm severely lacking in firewall knowledge and considering you said you loved firewalls and things, I would love to watch a series or something of you talking about firewalls!

    thanks Lewis this is exactly the kind of thing i was talking about yesterday ive just placed an order for the nice green 832 as the main one is out of stock and i cant wait to tinker with it

    That looks great, looking for a replacement for my raspi ha right now. I'd really like to know how to work with this remotely (esp ha updates), it's not like a monitor is commonly found in a server rack 😋

    It's nice that you appreciate other people's packages so much after you've gotten a taste. Good work!

    This is a great alternative for a pi for sure. I have a intel Nuc and have installed proxmox on it. Running a VM with home assistant in it so i can get the full OS supervised version of HA. Plus running a lot of containerized lxc and docker containers, (pi-hole, most of the arr's, openmediavault, vaultwarden, and many more). But this will be great for those that don't want to go down the VM, Container rabbit hole 😄

    It's interesting that you say that firewalls are your jam. Would you consider making a firewall series of videos? Choosing/setup/maintaining etc

    Would love to see Zimaboard - pfSense/OPNsense video from you!

    casa os looks and sounds cool. Docker containers have long reminded me of Play Market. I wonder if there are high availability quality tools in this shell?
