It's interesting to hear tales of the issues folks are running into. I have a number of RPis (6 running DietPi and RoonBridge as endpoints, 1 running ISSabove, 1 running PiAware aircraft tracking system, 1 running Raspian Buster desktop on my electronics desk and a few ad hoc experimental things such as speech recognition). My experience with all of these is as follows:

The bedroom endpoint has run for a year with no work.
It sounds like you have a number of different OSes, servers, and hardware configurations running. You mention the bedroom unit as being stable.
What config are you using there?
I ask because I have had to arm wrestle with networks and configuring user-hostile hardware for work before, and the last thing I want to do when I’m just trying to relax and enjoy some music is enter software config hell just to play a song.
But I don’t have a budget for a US$500+ endpoint and US$500+ player software, so I’m hoping there’s an affordable alternative.
Thanks.
