I enjoy running a node for a lot of reasons, but I am always honest with people who want to do it that it’s not a way to generate income, and it’s not without a steep learning curve.
If you have a Raspberry Pi, you’re much better off just setting it up as an Alby (npub1get…0nfm) Hub which doesn’t require much maintenance.
If you really want to go all in, you should plan to spend a few hundred bucks on a decent used mini PC with a faster processor and plenty of disk space.
For most people who just want to use Lightning and not run their own hardware, there are a bunch of decent options.
