Make sure your wallet is up-to-date and pick a trusted community remote node like:

• https://monero.stackwallet.com:18081/
• http://node.sethforprivacy.com:18089/

Edit: Removed the kyun node. Apparently it’s not an official kyun node and ran by an anon.

It would greatly help if you would actually describe your project instead of having people search for your account on a different site.

Yes! That is possible, check out this guide. Pruned db is smaller but it will first do a full sync and then prune it so you still need enough storage for the “peak”.

Raspberries lack physical AES instructions, I am not exaggerating when I say this could take 5-6 weeks to sync. There are other SBCs like the Rockpro 64 that would be way better suited for a node but the most economical option is getting used mini-pcs from ebay for $50.

It will have high RAM usage because it is constantly writing and reading during sync.

The site is still being attacked. Biggest issue is the lemmy-ui crashing under the load, the server itself could just about handle it. I’ve talked to Digilol who I’ll likely hire to move town to a new server and set up proper .onion support but the current server is still pre-paid for 200 more days and even after the move it’s still possible that the lemmy-ui would go down anyways :/
