Agreed, I tried self-hosting it a couple of month ago and it was impossible. I spent the day on it but the setup process was broken because of a recent change which was made for their cloud offering. Managing both a codebase both adapted to a cloud deployment with a huge amount of users and to a self-hosted way small deployment is very hard and requires a lot of resources. It's hard to justify investing this much time and money in making it work well for a self-hosted setup, and it seems like they stopped doing so.
It's still great to make the code open, but it's not usable anymore for a self-hosted setup.

WebSerial was just introduced in Firefox 151. It was already available for 5 years in Chromium based browser. It's so new in Firefox that even caniuse is not up-to-date: https://caniuse.com/web-serial.

I also been using it for 5+ years, it's been really great! And Neamar, the creator, is a really nice guy who goes the extra mile to make sure it works great, doesn't need any permission that are not absolutely required and stays up-to-date with the last changes of the Android API.

The first image is a Rancilio Silvia espresso machine. If you like DIY, you can add your own PID with an ESP32 (wifi-enabled cheap microcontroler), a thermocouple (to measure the temperature of the boiler) and a solid-state relay (to turn on/off the boiler heating element) for less than $40. I did it in my own machine following this repo: https://github.com/rancilio-pid/clevercoffee. I have perfectly stable temperature, I can turn on the heating from my bed (with MQTT and HomeAssistant) and I used the occasion to fully understand how my machine works (which tbh is always a big part of the motivation for doing these kind of projects).

If you want to quickly deploy Matrix (and all the related goodies) on your server,I highly recommend https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy. It's one of the best maintained project I've seen, a pleasure to install, maintain and upgrade.

There are some projects like Snapcast[1] or SoundSync[2] (disclaimer: I'm the creator of Soundsync) to let multiple devices communicate together on the same network. The transmission-side isn't that complex: you choose an audio codec, transmit chunks of data and add a synchronization layer (to keep multiple outputs in sync and to correctly delay video playback to match the soundtrack). The bigger problem is building an ecosystem big enough to make it attractive. Bluetooth sucks but is everywhere.

If you are interested by Hasura, don't care about the graphical interface and want more control over permissions, take a look at Postgraphile: https://www.graphile.org/postgraphile/ I've been using it for a year on multiple projects and it's awesome.
