I’m about to install Debian. I have my usb drive flashed. In the videos I watched. There is a screen that asks about whether you want to install gnome or some other desktop. But there is also options for

web server

ssh server

Should I select both of those?

Going to be a bitcoin and Lightning node pc.

Once you get bitcoin running and synchronized, check out Fulcrum.

It uses another 100GB or so of disk space for its indexes, and takes a day or so to sync too, but it is a super fast electrum compatible server that makes mempool.space run great and is a great electrum server to point wallets like Sparrow and various mobile wallets at.

You run just bitcoin core? Where do you get Fulcrum from?

Yeah, I just run bitcoin, Fulcrum, and mempool.space right now. Still haven’t dug into running my own lightning node yet, but I will eventually.
