That was a very insightful and helpful reply. Thank you so much! 🙏 SATs coming your way. I had Umbrel running on a Pi4 and Start9 also on a Pi4 in an Argon One chassis with internal NVMe SSD. Both worked OK to be honest. No issues with tailscale for the Umbrel but Start9 seems to be more secure as access is via Tor/https after installing certificates. However both seem slow with Bitcoin Core, hence the repurposed T480. I’m a total Linux noob so I think I might just go with start9 to see if I can get it to run smoothly on the T480. But I am also tempted to play with Linux too. Either way I enjoy the tinkering 🙂 Thanks again!
