2, no, just check the docs.

3, yup

You can make your own health checks in docker compose, so for instance, I had etcd running provided by another company, and I just set up the check in compose using the etcdctl commands (etcdctl endpoint health).

Unfortunately this idea that open source is free is a bit toxic in a way. It’s definitely not free to make, it takes years of dev time, and sure, those people often do it without any compensation. And therein lies the problem. People here bitching about jellyfin not doing x or y, but doing nothing to support full time development of it’s creation, then shitting on the devs for not having a perfect product, leads to good devs leaving OSS behind.

Edit: I’ll also say, I get the issues that come with proprietary software in the modern age, especially anything online, but there’s almost this push towards not paying for software. Because some software is free and open source, paying for closed source software makes you a rube or something.

Yes, the 2040 is a microcontroller.

Nordic Semi nRF52840, Bluetooth only board: https://www.seeedstudio.com/Seeed-XIAO-BLE-nRF52840-p-5201.html

There are a few others by this manufacturer of different chips, none quite as fast as the ESPs though:

I’m only linking the Seeed ones because they’re high quality. They’re also the only ones I’ve found this size with built in battery chargers.

Hope that helps. Oh and as a bonus, here’s someone using the RP2040 and an OLED to turn a lego brick into a Doom machine:

Espressif is still just Espressif. The RP and Nordic semiconductor chips are good too, though RP is also a corporation now.
