nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll DIY on an old ThinkPad have been rock solid for me.
My Umbrel is getting more or more often offline, LND and BTCPay are crashing or freezing randomly, sometimes it comes back, sometimes I have to manually restart them and LND takes a long time, 30min to more than 1h to be back online.
Anyone having similar issues? I run it on Raspi4 8GB for about 2 years. Should I do some cleanup in LND or electrum db?
I already uninstall everything not really needed, including Mempool 😥, what else can I do?

I almost did use Start9 on a new node but their apps in the app store are way too old for me, I like to test the latest stuff, like BTCPay 2.0.3 with boltcards and the latest extensions on LNbits.
They have a Community & Beta repositories. I've become an LTS guy.
Ok good to know. I will see if I give it a try but now I'm well advanced in my CLI deployed node.
The services on the official registry are manually tested and verified by Start9 engineers. There's a delay between software releases and when they appear on the marketplace, but you know it has been tested very well by Start9 staff. If you like to live on the edge, you can always fork and build the service yourself. (I do this, to help out start9 testing new releases or when I really want a new feature before it's officially released).
This is no different then the "apt" repositories on linux. A lot of software have newer releases, but the official repositories are always a bit behind, because... testing, stability and security.
Same for me
Did you use their diy in the documentation? I was just looking at the two options for live-usb, I guess the x86 non free one?
I'm still running my node build from scratch, so far I could fix almost everything but BTCPay and LNbits as still not connect to it.
Yes, x86 non-free iso. https://github.com/Start9Labs/start-os/releases/tag/v0.3.5.1
Thank you! I got the bootable made, and tried it out on an old laptop. It made it to the Firefox browser for install but I wasn't prepared to wipe that particular machine, so I guess I'm waiting till Monday to push the project further.
