The Raspberry Pi 5 was just announced yesterday. For this week's #FOSSFriday, I'm going to tell you about RaspiBolt! If you've ever wanted to run a Bitcoin and Lightning node and you've wanted to build it from scratch, giving yourself full control over the whole process, this is your guide. There are no Docker containers here. 🔥 RaspiBolt is a popular software project that allows anyone to set up a Bitcoin and Lightning node on a Raspberry Pi. This makes it a relatively affordable and easy way to support the Bitcoin network and participate in the Lightning Network. ⚡ RaspiBolt is also a great way to learn more about Bitcoin and Lightning and learn about Linux in general. The installation and configuration process is well-documented, and there is a large and active community of users who are happy to provide support. 🐧 BONUS: You don't have to use a Raspberry Pi Either. That's right. You can use this guide for essentially any hardware. Just don't complete the Raspberry Pi specific configuration steps. I promise you, it will be fine. When I rebuilt my node a few months ago, I mostly followed this guide to make sure I wasn't missing anything. It works great. I don't use a Raspberry Pi. I use a 4 year old Laptop. 🔥 If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Umbrel isn’t open sourced and I believe this is. I’ve been wanting to build a new node from scratch with all open-source software
Do what?
Umbrel is great for beginners. I ran one for 3 years. I wanted to do more and have more control. My Umbrel node was running a bunch of custom apps. Additionally, Umbrel has a visual management interface. This does not. Though, I do use Thunderhub. Better is a tough argument because it's highly subjective.
MiniBolt is just a copy and paste with the architecture changed. The website even used to mention Rapsbiolt in various places 🤣 After I saw that I assumed it was a hack job, and went back to Rapsbiolt.

Running both Umbrel and Raspiblitz (which is a more automated version of Raspibolt?) One certainly feels more like a shadowy super-coder using command line with lightning. 😂

Who the hell cares It’s a guide and if it works it works
If you're going to steal the content and not bother to change it all, it's a hack job. If they're going to skip there, what other shortcuts did they take? Nope.
Despite the similar naming conventions Raspbibolt and Raspiblitz are very different.
I did it myself. They didn’t skip anything imho
Interesting. Thoughts on blitz?
I've never ran it. Think of Blitz as a FOSS Umbrel. nostr:npub1mc20uche0cy599vpl850aschpu7wteundgsnf0msep79lu3fu5aq3r4ptv ran it for a while. He converted his Umbrella to Blitz.

I loved raspiblitz. The only reason i switched back to umbrel a second time was nearly losing a lot of sats in a freak lightning accident where i killt my own node and hadn’t backed up my channels properly. Umbrel is tard-friendlier, but raspiblitz makes a tard feel shadowy supercoderish af
Ha! Well said.
Yes.

Am I stealing from myself? 😂 https://github.com/raspibolt/raspibolt/blob/master/LICENSE https://github.com/minibolt-guide/minibolt/blob/main/LICENSE https://github.com/raspibolt/raspibolt/graphs/contributors https://github.com/minibolt-guide/minibolt/graphs/contributors Read and then give your opinion. In that order, please, don't be so ignorant. https://image.nostr.build/86f289532d8948465c321f53e1fcb57874792e7c15119cc0a497b74b54ca4e25.jpg
Es mucho tiempo invertido (no remunerado en absoluto) y sin apenas colaboradores, para que después desvaloricen tu trabajo a consecuencia de ser tan ignorante, imagino que le faltan pelos en la cabeza para retener las ideas... En fin... cuanto desagradecido hay en el mundo... Por suerte aún queda gente buena 👇 https://twitter.com/_Jorg2140_/status/1709163085292876128 Esto lo hago por mi, por #Bitcoin, para aprender y para todo aquel que sepa valorarlo. Mantengamos el nivelazo que se estila por nostr, sigamos construyendo! 🏗️ Se os quiere! 💜 nostr:nevent1qqs2593g4tzyryuhput2k53gfzur59857frjt85suty6e8x6myde7cspz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqygplwuxkt5a8vj5utj6s8tsj8e3wcavc45p4mqmw92qs7wrh5azmyspsgqqqqqqshkm8d6
