Hmm. I did the same for a good long while, even would have to resync for a few hours depending on how long I left it off... 😅
I know there are things like Datum for constructing your own templates (I'm not there yet) and running things like public-pool on your own local network but I'm not sure how to do that without the heavy helping hand of software that basically holds my hand. 🫤
Hopefully someone more competent will show up in my stead.
