I’m a fan. I don’t use it to its full extent. Strictly run my full node and Electrum server. Also gave Public Pool a go.

I don’t host my files on there or anything like that.

Have you ever had any issues with it?

When I first set it up on a Raspberry Pi the SSD shit the bed during setup. That may have just been a faulty SSD. No problems after replacing the SSD.

I picked up the new hardware and it worked great out of the box. No issues whatsoever.

I'm considering running it on a NUC. The new umbrel home looks pretty decent, though.

I don't like raspis. I only own one as a need to run a few things for a 3D printer. I don't really see the point in getting more. I know, I'm strange. (I also don't like most arduinos. 😅🤷‍♂️)

I don’t have any experience with NUC.

I’m not a huge fan of using RaspberryPis either. Arduinos though…those I’m a fan of. Ridiculously easy to prototype on. To each their own

I'm so bad with programming, I've never been about to do anything useful with an arduino... 🫣

Hence asking about umbrel... LOL

No worries and understood. You shouldn’t have any problems with the new umbrel hardware. It truly is plug and play

Cool. I just have to see if the cost is justified for the hardware. It might be.
