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.
We are temporarily suspending monero.town signups while this is live to prevent airdrop hunters from joining. Non-local comments containing an address will also be removed. Known community members can still DM me on matrix to get approved.
The DDoS comes from exit nodes via clearnet so Tor PoW doesn't work, most likely there will be a total server migration at some point that adds tor support with pow and a tor friendly frontend.
I'll have a look, thank you!
Is this on by default after v1.5.0?
I've looked into alexandrite and photon before but to be honest, the install is quite messy since I didn't really know what I was doing back then. Makes it pretty hard to figure out how to properly set these up and I'd rather start over on a new server.
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 :/
You can also do this with featherwallet, just get the download link from getmonero.org so you don't click on the phishing site.
It would greatly help if you would actually describe your project instead of having people search for your account on a different site.
