      my pi zero 2w was delivered today and I’m really surprised about the good performance.

      Tested 2 apps:

      • mm as docker setup
      • motioneye with google drive upload (also docker)

      Both worked out of the box and felt not slower as on my old pi 3b.

        @karsten13 memory is a little slower than PI3b… but not too terrible
        see benchmarks from prior post

            Those that have MM running on pi02w, what modules do you have running? I tried in vain to get it running on my pi0w, but when I started adding weather/calendar/background photo etc it failed. The modules I need:

            • Photos
            • Google Calendar
            • Todoist
            • Weather Forecast
            • (nice to have) Spotify ‘now playing’
            • (nice to have) Moon Phases

            Is it possible to have these on the zero 2? Or do I need to wait until like June to get the pi 4.

              @laurafox08 yes, those should be fine. no real cpu hogs there. still shorter on memory, so make a bigger swap file

              like pi3.
