Curious what you are running your node on? I have an extra pi4 I thought about trying to set it up on

Just set up my own nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm hub with a self-hosted Lightning node! ⚡ Taking control of my payments, enhancing privacy, and diving deeper into the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Avoid the Pi. They struggle with the size of the blockchain nowadays.
I am running a non-lightning node on another pi4, has been running for approximately 3 years. It has a huge hdd attached to it, but no issues in operation.
I’m new to #lightning so I was hoping the deployment would be similar
HDD or SSD?
Lighting will add extra CPU load and disc access load. Not a lot, but a bit. I know that it can be done, but I think you'll eventually run into issues. Give it a crack if you can persevere and don't mind upgrading soon.
