Nice. That is all I run. What distro did you use?

I use Mint, it took me a while to adjust from Windows, but now I would never go back. I'm not super techy, so had to watch lots of YT vids to learn how to install Linux.

That is fantastic to hear. I've converted some people, but generally it is a difficult ask.

Yes most people dont like to change the status quo, or to learn new things. Me, I try new things and want to improve my knowlede of stuff. Its a struggle for a non techy person like me.

A fun one to look into is an umbrel. It is a Linux based server that has many one click install apps. This includes lightning and BTC nodes

That sounds interesting, and I have heard about Start9, which I think has some of the same features. But havent done much research on it.

I think they are similar. Umbrel can be installed on lots of different hardware, including a raspberry Pi or old laptop.
