It’s great to see relay development happening on Umbrel and other personal servers. This will absolutely help onboard folks to nostr and grow the network.

Just be aware of what you’re doing. The more services you add to your node, the more risk you are taking. Maybe you have a bitcoin node and a nostr/everything else node.

For me I probably won’t be managing my wealth on the same device that stores my shitpoasts.

This has always been my concern with Umbrel, but hey, you can run the fun stuff on the umbrel, and serious cypherpunk bitcoin stuff on another node.

Exactly. Plus the user experience goes down quick once you overload the raspberry pi with a bunch of apps.

Definitely not a good idea to put anything on the same machine as your bitcoin stack that is not absolutely necessary IMO

Completely agree. But I’m not sure it’s that obvious to people.
