Yeah, that's how we engineers feel - if it ain't my eavorite/elegant language, BYO... Program :)

Yeah, I also ran off of RPI4 for a few years, along with MQTT, Nextcloud (+SQL), photoprism, bitwarden and whatever needed for proxying via nginx. I only migrated to better hardware because I wanted to browse my pictures faster, photoprism solved that even on RPI, but I wanted faster indexing and offline face recognition where RPI turned out to have too little RAM.
On normal load, my RPI would still have room for other containers.
Having HA within a container was a feature - not too much to configure and everything is isolated, so I can still run other services from RPI. And easy upgrades.
