I'm thinking about getting started using Docker and an older Raspberry Pi. I'm already hosting a grafana service on it, so It can't be fully dedicated to ha. So curious what everyone is using.

I upgraded from a Pi2 to a second hand thinkpad. It went from underpowered to also running a NAS and a factorio server with plenty of precessing power to spare. I've used it for several other projects as needed. Docker compose makes everything trivial.
