raspberry pi but it’s getting unwieldy at times with 4gb ram

Saddens me that people encouraged RPi for nodes, they are a terrible choice for that tbh

What would you recommend?

Old laptops or business workstations, something that isn't running ARM64, maybe something with at least 8 cores in processor

Yup, refurbished thinkpads(5 years old) are $200. They have enough CPU/ram to run a full BTC node and lightning routing node.

refurbished mini PCs

Dell optiplex

Lenovo think entre

Raspberry pi is not production hw

yes, you are right! RPi is not the best choice.

Has 8Gb Ram

i think you’re right its 8

I'm running my node on it for over two year without problems
