Just set up my own nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm hub with a self-hosted Lightning node! ⚔ Taking control of my payments, enhancing privacy, and diving deeper into the Bitcoin ecosystem. Decentralization never felt so empowering. šŸš€ #Bitcoin #LightningNetwork #SelfSovereignty

Curious what you are running your node on? I have an extra pi4 I thought about trying to set it up on

Avoid the Pi. They struggle with the size of the blockchain nowadays.

I am running a non-lightning node on another pi4, has been running for approximately 3 years. It has a huge hdd attached to it, but no issues in operation.

I’m new to #lightning so I was hoping the deployment would be similar

HDD or SSD?

Lighting will add extra CPU load and disc access load. Not a lot, but a bit. I know that it can be done, but I think you'll eventually run into issues. Give it a crack if you can persevere and don't mind upgrading soon.
