I'm done with nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct.

I can't stand the endless bugs and shit breaking for no reason. They haven't released any updates in over 8 months. Instead, all they seem to be doing is promoting their new Umbrel Home hardware. Sell outs. I will give nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll a try.

I’ve enjoyed Start9. No crashes, easy install. Set it and forget it. Good luck.

Same here

Umbrel is just an nice interface with bunch of docker containers. They combine together the hard work of others and selling that as an all in one package.

What if you just keep the big bag of your Bitcoin in your bitcoin wallet only you know about and use lightning for small purchases and zaps with custodial wallets.

I have personally break up with lightning nodes because I never have a big portion of sats located in lightning and that's for custodial solutions are just fine. Operating your own lightning node is time consuming and I have other things to do like shitposting about other stuff.

I think this self sovereignty is getting too much in our heads and most of us will do just fine with custodial solutions simply because we don't live in high risk environment.

Im exactly the same. My nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct broke on the etf launch date, which resulted in force closing of my channels.

So now I have decided just to use the nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 LSP and the build in nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg wallet.

Don’t have the time to manage my channels anyway. So this is gonna be my setup, along with a full node for onchain stuff.

i think you should just wait a lil bit more mate

if you want to put your Raspbery to use and learn a bit along the way consider raspibolt.org (also join the TG for help and support)

if you want the same for PC then try v2.minibolt.info

old laptops are better quality hardware for doing real services that risk money

laptop is great solution I have one as my node

i'm also running bitcoin core on my laptop :D

lol what about lightning?

i'm not rich enough to run a lightning yet... trying to stack my sats...

fair enough

Start9 has been way more stable in my experience. Had Umbrel on an RPi and learned real quick how garbage that was.

Gonna use the pi as an LibreELEC streamer or something.

If you are running this on a pi your hardware could be the reason you are having so many issues.

I had the same problems with Umbrel and still haven’t regretted switching to Start9

I'm running Embassy OS from #Start9 within a virtual machine for testing. It has been solid and ridiculously simple.
