My node is alive. All from scratch. The LND migration was a massive success. ๐Ÿซก

I just have a few extras bells and whistles to work on, but for the most part, I'm done and happy. What a huge stress relief ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Good to hear! ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’œ

Congrats! ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿผ

Iโ€™m still syncing. Decided to swap out to 2TB and start again. Seems much slower though this time around. Iโ€™m thinking ISP is throttling me now.

ISPs probably don't like pulling 1TB over a week's time. I thought about this too ๐Ÿ˜‚

Exactly ๐Ÿ˜† Iโ€™ve probably triggered some โ€œwhat the feck is this guy doingโ€ algo..

And what about your nose?

Letโ€™s vlog about it. Need more bitcoin/nostr code runner podcasts. Do those exist? Devs canโ€™t have all the fun talking on podcasts, right?!?

Ohh yeah

love to see a write up on this...

have a similar task on my todo list

I'll write something up later, but I mostly followed the raspbibolt guide.

I went the opposite way lol. I've been running a raspibolt setup for years but found the manual maintenance overhead was way too high... switched to Start9

I even scripted my raspibolt custom installs and everything ๐Ÿ˜…

I think the ultimate zen will be to one day figure out how to run a nix-os setup

I already update dozens of servers and applications a few times a month, what's a couple more? The networking on start9 is a pain in the ass to do anything custom, IMO. It's great, but it's not for me.

Are you using a raspberry pi for the server? How much resources is it using? ram/processor/network

Looking at the repo, it looks like this would install on a headless linux vm ok. Anyone done that?

Very interested in your experience setting this up, and how solid the performance is.

Wait, weren't you just on Start9 or something?

I was. And it's great! But it's not for me. I need more flexibility. I want to run my own LN address, from a Zappable address, that works with NWC. I can't do that with Start9.

I roll my own as well.

Do you prefer LND vs CLN?

Definitely wish I had held off and done more research myself. I jumped in, not knowing what I was really doing, and now I have an umbrel node set up that I just let sit there with no connections or sats because I'm afraid of the privacy concerns so it's just a pretty memepool explorer I guess ๐Ÿ˜… maybe one day when things like opening channels and whatnot are more understandable for the layperson I'll jump on again. In the meantime sats for fun on alby and BTC on the main chain in cold storage for me
