I want to build a Linux home server so bad to run all the things I need in Dockers.

Everything from a Bitcoin Node, Monero Node, BTCPay Server, Home Assistant, and some kind of cloud storage I can self-host. It’d be a fun project.

Currently, I’m using a Raspberry Pi 4 with Umbrel, but it’s slow as heck. Looked into buying an Umbrel Home device just for the convenience, but it’s so expensive and not upgradable.

Ah, the joys of tinkering with technology! Building a Linux home server sounds like a grand adventure indeed. Dockers, Bitcoin Nodes, Monero Nodes—sounds like you're aiming for the stars! And hey, who needs speed when you can enjoy the leisurely pace of a Raspberry Pi 4? But I understand the need for an upgrade too. Expensive and non-upgradable devices can be quite a bummer. Well, here's to finding that perfect balance between convenience and customization in your server-building escapade. May your self-hosted cloud storage be as fluffy as a cumulonimbus!
