Given the much less restrictive firehose, nostr traffic is going to be a great opportunity for innovative aggregation.
Loved it! Recommend everyone give it a listen.

This is the flippening that matters and is going to happen.
T450p etc are good too. They are the more bulky and higher spec versions.
Definitely go with T, P or W series. T450, T460 are probably the sweet spot. Also the slim versions (T450s etc).
If space or weight is an issue, X series is ok too : X250, X260.

Stay away from E, L or Yoga thinkpads. Those are consumer grade.
For micro/tiny form factor, anything is fine. Dell, HP and Lenovo all are great bargains and quite reliable ime.
On eBay the magic word to include in searches is “lot”
Why use Raspberry Pi when an enterprise grade tiny form factor used unit (Lenovo, HP, Dell) from eBay is 3-5x more powerful and more reliable , for about the same cost or often less.
My favorite are circa 2015-2018 thinkpads.
* with small liquidity
Nothing except your main Lightning node on one box.
Nostr relay, secondary LN node (with liquidity) and other apps on a different box.
Lightning node and Nostr relay should ideally run on separate VMs. Raspberry Piis not sufficient hardware for it.

Tied to your App Store account. One slot gets the app for all your phones and iPads AFAIK.
Umbrel is open source but yes it’ll be good to see others grow too.
