Switching to nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll was very easy. I was able to spin up all of the Bitcoin services that I normally run in no time at all. I'm going to start recommending Start9. 🤙🏻
For me minibolt is the best, it is the cleanest installation I could imagine, you do everything yourself and you learn about linux and a bit of python
And what is most important it runs on whatever hardware (PC) you want, so you can also upgrade your hardware which means it can run on a very powerful machines which raspberry is NOT and LN node does require a better piece of hardware
I enjoyed building a Bitcoin and CLN node from scratch last summer. It was a project that I did to keep me busy. I was going crazy not being able to do much when I first got home from surgery 😂 Anyway, I haven't heard of this project before. I'll check it out just to see what they use. I like using docker containers for nearly everything at home.
It's a fork of raspibolt but aimed for PC instead of raspberry pis, it is great, I believe it uses containers, you can install almost all known apps and run them from home or via Tor from distance, simply solid software able to run on the best performing hardware you can imagine and I think this is exactly what is needed, simple step by step guide with explanations that everyone can follow and you learn more about linux as you go
