What are you guys using for your diagrams of your home lab (alien.top)

Ive been running a home lab for awhile and its gotten pretty sophisticated over the years. About to destroy and rebuild. As such I want to document things and plan it all out nicely (I've been inspired by posts here!)

My problem is most likely my usage of a Mac these days. Visio doesnt work on the mac in a thick client, and the web client is pretty cool, but it's quite confining in terms of shapes. Curious what you guys are using with the logo'ed graphics for every vendor/brand etc. Ideally something free, but not opposed to paying for a quality service/software.

Thanks in advance!

As a visual, technical person I see your point but disagree.

I don’t need (but like) the logos. I can understand the layout in hierarchical text.

But it absolutely helps me / is easier, to see the lines showing the interfaces connections.
