I enjoyed building a Bitcoin and CLN node from scratch last summer. It was a project that I did to keep me busy. I was going crazy not being able to do much when I first got home from surgery 😂 Anyway, I haven't heard of this project before. I'll check it out just to see what they use. I like using docker containers for nearly everything at home.

It's a fork of raspibolt but aimed for PC instead of raspberry pis, it is great, I believe it uses containers, you can install almost all known apps and run them from home or via Tor from distance, simply solid software able to run on the best performing hardware you can imagine and I think this is exactly what is needed, simple step by step guide with explanations that everyone can follow and you learn more about linux as you go
