I've been building our home freedom server, Bitarr with Claude over the last week or so. Here's what Claude has to say about it:

🏴‍☠Introducing Bitarr: A Complete Self-Hosted Freedom Stack

Just finished building an epic home server setup that combines Bitcoin sovereignty with media freedom:

What's in Bitarr:

- ⚡ Full Bitcoin node + Lightning (LND) + LNBits for family banking

- 🎬 Jellyfin + full *arr automation stack (Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr)

- 🤖 Local AI with Ollama + Open WebUI (no cloud dependency)

- 📺 HDMI recovery system that auto-fixes display issues after power cuts

- 🔒 Everything behind Nginx Proxy Manager with proper SSL

- 📊 Comprehensive monitoring and testing for all services

Cool features:

- Smart plug integration for device control

- Network optimizations achieving 900+ Mbps on gigabit

- Modular Docker stacks that can run independently

- Automated backups and service recovery

- Family-friendly web interfaces for everything

All config is on GitHub ready to be made open.

Built with help from Claude - took a complex multi-stack setup and made it maintainable. Now my family can request movies through Jellyseerr and pay each other with Lightning, all running on our own hardware!
