It’s time to set my first full bitcoin node up. And, why not, also a Nostr relay. I wonder if a Raspberry Pi 5 16GB is too much or not. Umbrel 2TB would be my go to, but it’s to pricy. Any thoughts?

I runna node on pi 4 8gb. Core and Electrum. Nothing else, runs fine. Tried Umbrel, then moved to Start9. Happy days.

do you think you'd have enough to also run a Nostr relay? Just trying to understand if 8gb are enough... and I bet you had much fun assembly all together!

Yes, nostr relay was light when I tried it - not doing that anymore though. But as soon as I added stuff like Syncthing or Jellyfin or File browser it struggled. So my pi 4 8gb is only for a node. Let us know how you go!
