oh how I wish I could update my umbrel node. it's just not working on my mini computer.
I was about to give up on my nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct node, it was slow, get offline for some minutes regularly, LNbits was disconnecting regularly and need a restart and updates where often breaking things.
But then I did the update (from 0.5.x) to 1.1 and firstly the update didn't break anything (took some hours so catch up and restart properlly thus, don't stress if it's not working right away) and then it has been smooth, never offline, LNBits never disconnect and faster than ever for more than 10 days now.
Thanks the team, it looks like you did a great job with this update! Keep going and deliver easy to deploy nodes to the masses.

Which CPU and RAM do you have? I'm still on RaspberryPi4 8GB but I'm about to build another node on a MiniPC i5 6600 8GB, should be way enough for a node but we will see.
