Ok, so what the hell do I use this raspi 4b for?

Look into Umbrel OS or Start9, or perhaps some Linux distro with bitcoin core.

He didn't ask for "wrong asnwers only".

Thanks? What do you recommend?

Something far less taxing. The Pi 5 has a challenge with some basic functions, and the Pi 4B is a step down from the Pi 4.

Making it into a Pi Hole, retro gamer, or security cam is more along the lines of its capabilities.

Yeah seems kinda spent

I run a star9 with a 1tb on a dell optiplex and a full node with a 2tb on a rockpro64

This is just the raspi 4b alone. I don't think it can easily run a PCLe. But now that I think of it I could swap the evo ssd in the start9 to the raspi and see if the dell can run the PCLe.

Yeah might not be ideal I agree. Start9 seemed to do just fine on my 4b with 8g ram though.

experimental mesh network node?

Say more

goTenna mesh with Blockstream satellite offers some promise. i havent seen a real case example yet, but with some tinkering, it would make for a solid weekend project.
