    Someone posted a link to this on the MagicMiror forum so I gave it a look. I'm glad I did. I see you're using the MMM-EyeCandy module. I wrote that module for the mirror a few years ago. It's nice to see people are still using it. Nice work on your mirror!

It was just a stupid joke about being in TH-cam comments generally for too long and seeing people make sexual innuendos about everything (referring to the content creator) so thought it was going in a different direction at first.

This makes me think "I should go do something super cool myself." Love it!!

    That's very neat! You can also try adding proximity sensors into the framing so that the screen and LED strips would automatically turn on and off when you get near the mirror, can possibly save tiny little bit of energy and is just simply cool

    I just recently made my own magic mirror. I really enjoyed your personal customizations and it's given me some ideas for my next mirror project.
    I separated the Magic Mirror server/client configuration so, I could run the MM server on an old laptop already being used as a development web server. Then installed the MM client on the Raspberry Pi and made it reachable across my network. The MM client uses significantly fewer resources and I even got it running smoothly on a Gen1 Pi Zero Wireless. Now, I can easily spin up multiple MM client instances for other mirrors, or set the MM dashboard web interface URL as a new tab window for my web browser to keep me informed.

      I still love the project. I am thinking to get some screen panels without housing and everything to safe some weight. Maybe even one or two of these super wide LED screens, so I only put them on the edges and the rest of the mirror is an actual mirror, with no screen behind it.

    You gave me a ton of new ideas, like: using (individually addressable) led strips to show the progress of brushing my teeth (bluetooth oral-b) and the vesa mount is an awesome idea.
    But I'm curious as to how you dealt with the amount of moisture in a bathroom with regards to the electronics, since that is my biggest worry.

      It helps to open the window a bit while you shower and for half an hour afterward. When I do that, I barely have moisture problems and my electronics haven't been affected.

    Wire in a motionsensor to turn on the power to screen when someone enters the room... And turns off after set time when no motion in room...

    Making a movable mirror using the monitor mount is a fantastic idea. I'm only freaked a bit about having the power socket that close to the faucet, unprotected from potential splashes and condensation? Perhaps to add some plywood on the back to close the bottom part of the back panel ?

      The whole thing is up higher than the tile backsplash and plugged into an outlet even closer to my sink than the mirror, and it's a GFCI outlet. And there's a paper towel roll mounted on the wall between it and the sink. Plus my bathroom is extremely well ventilated and doesn't ever get a foggy mirror. 🤷‍♀️
