Does anyone have any recommendations for issue tracking for homelab setups? I'm sure I could host some Jira clone but that feels overkill for what I'm doing, and something like MediaWiki is too general purpose.

I'm hoping to track future project ideas (Install Jellyfin / Sonarr, etc) and issues with my smarthome (Fireplace Light not accepting color changes via Google Assistant). Ideally with some kind of organization to it (priorities, subitems, etc).

Yeah I could use plaintext, but that's no fun :)

Does gitea let you have issues that do t belong to a specific project?

My smarthome isn't backed by a git repo, and having a phantom placeholder project isn't super appealing to me to force things to work. (though Ill take a look, may be worth the fuss, especially since I could use a gitea instance anyway...)

I also use gitea, in a bit unstructured way. I do have a dedicated project which I use for project "management" (I.e. dump ideas about new services, new tools to write, improvements and sometimes bugs to fix), I also use repo specific issues for things that concern that particular repo (I have terraform repos, ansible repo, code repos, kubernetes/flux repos etc.). I also use taskwarrior for my actual to do list, which is more general than my homelab.

The main point for me is just not to forget about stuff, but I don't want to do issue tracking in a way that feels like my second job. For this gitea projects work quite nicely, and they are easily tied to PRs, so that I can go back and easily cross reference what I did for a specific issue.
