 Syncing a node on a pi is hell now 
 you sync faster if you get a recent chain bootstrap and just sync the blocks missing since the bootstrap was created 
 It’s on umbrel and I’ve failed to figure out how to do it with that OS 
 I already closed the tabs I was reading about it, but they said the file has to be in a certain location. So I guess find that location, ssh in, and stick it there 
 I need some serious hand holding. I couldn’t ssh in successfully 
 Actually, last time I tried, it didn't work... So I'm no better. But when it has worked, I just googled "how to ssh" and it autogenerated an answer at the top of the page.

 I'd bet the newest pi could do it okayish. My older pi is struggling.
