I think planning for what happens once you aren't there to manage the setup (whether it be a vacation, hospital stay, or death) is important. It's not something I built specifically to make easy and I should think more on it

The most important thing is to be able to get important data off of it and have access to credentials that facilitate that. You could setup something like Nextcloud to always sync important data onto other people's devices, so make part of that easier

But I think another important aspect is making folks invested in the services. I don't expect my partner to care about or use most of them, but she does know as much as I do about using and automating Home Assistant (the little we've done). Things like that should keep working because of how core they can become to living our lives. It being a separate "appliance" and not a VM will also help manage that

But also that's a lot of hope and guessing. I think sitting down with whoever might be left with it and putting together a detailed plan is critical to any of that being successful
