Whether they use docker or not, it would be awesome if miners could point hash-rate at their own RaspiBlitz 😀

The chances of small pools finding a block are rather low though. I think StratumV2 allows for mining proxies that select block templates themselves and pass on the hash-rate.

Is this the intention with public-pool?

V2 is somewhat unnecessary if you're mining to your own node, which is the intend use case

Though, I would get super irregular payouts when mining to my own node as a small miner without V2 right?

You'd have to find a whole block. V2 doesn't change the ability of the pool to censor transactions

Apparently V2 allows miners to generate their own custom block templates from transactions out of their own node's mempool:

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something though. My interpretation is that the pools pay for hash-rate (ie. distribute the reward) as long as the miners are working on valid blocks irrespective of who generates the valid block template.
