Nostr Web Client

Update: And now I’m back to Umbrel. Start9 had great UX, but still having problems with my Bitcoin node and I really enjoyed the other offerings Umbrel had.

Probably end up converting my RPi to self-hosting.

Will use Bitcoin Core pruned node and Sparrow on the MacBook Air.

Was it an issue with start9 setup?

No, just my bitcoin node. It had syncing issues. My hardware was below specs. (4GB vs 8GB). Not sure what it was. But the funny things is, when I switched back to Umbrel all the apps that weren’t loading before suddenly were there. So installing the Start9 OS seemed to have fixed the Umbrel OS ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Could you already try Raspiblitz? It's great too

Didn’t want to buy the display, and I’d totally want to buy the display.

You don't need the display, it's optional. There is a web interface like with Umbrel too now

Sparrow connected to a Fulcrum node running on anything better than an RPi is a very nice experience relative to connecting to a non-Fulcrum node running on a Pi.

A NUC with a 2TB NVME is very affordable compared to current RPi 4 prices and it performs much better.

Umbrel ist auch mein Favorit. Nutze ich seit Jahren. Keine Probleme.
