Curious on why you gave up dojo?

I use a hardware wallet

I gave up on Dojo because its not available for Start9.

Samourai doesn't connect to electrs, but rather Dojo.

I chose Start9 over MyNode and Umbrel due to stability and security. (Umbrel doesn't support https).

Umbrel gobbled up ram up on all the machines i tried it on.

on my 16GB machine it was using 15GB with only Core, electrs and nostr relay on it.

Start9 is running with Core, Nostr relay, electrs and only using 3GB of Ram.

Umbrel is an application container.

Start9 is an operating system (linux distro).

Agree, Star9 is quite superior if you need more than simply a node, electrum and dojo.

I do not feel is a good practice to mix anything with a Bitcon node that is not related, therefore, star9 is a setting I use only for self sovereign server with cloud services, but no Bitcoin, I try to remove any possible additional attack vector to the device.

Umbrel OS works without stability issues if not mixed with anything else but Node, electrum and dojo,.

I think both are awesome, but each one for a different use case.

Did you buy the star9 HW solution or install it in a server of your own?
