Did they recently free up their server software for public use? If so, I'm totally repurposing my laptop, I always found the original rasbpi box a bit slow.
Three years ago, I built an Umbrel node.
Last summer, I built a node from scratch.
Today, I finished my nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll node.
I don't like recommending technology to people without fully having used it myself. I often tell people to use Start9 even though I only never "used" it in any production sort of manner. I only installed the OS, poked around the settings and marketplace a bit, then stopped using it.
That changes today. I will be migrating my Umbrel node over to my Start9 node as soon as Bitcoin finishes syncing.

Start9 released their software back in November or December of 2022. That's when I first tested it out. I just did not commit to switching until today.
