Start9 is great
I use Umbrel and was considering Start9 for a new node but my main concern would not be solved with Start9, that apps updates are always delayed, like BTCPay and Lnbits are often weeks if not months late on both OS.
For now I went the all manual CLI way but I see its limitation as well, each new app install takes hours (first time), you must triple check everthing, understand everything, you face multiple issues to solve by yourself or github/community support and anything could break of you update the slightliest component in your system. I like to learn but I don't always have the time to do it, and maintenant it right.
Yeah as a former raspiblitz and umbrel runner every time I had node issues the support was terrible. If I had time to tinker and figure things out then that is the way to go but for an easy button start9 has been a blessing. All my anxiety of node running is reduced to about 5%
Hey Friend,
Just an aside as I've been scanning your feed;
I was in Nashville; wish I had had the chance to meet you in person.
Also, I bought a Server One from Start9 and I've been (slowly) getting things up and running. A few difficulties and glitches, but I think I'm "over the hump" now and I'm beginning to get things going.😁
Start9 is fantastic!
