Looking for suggestions to replace my raspberry pi for running my node

I totally get your frustration RPi 4 is great for entry-level tinkering, but it starts to show its limits with more demanding node setups. A solid upgrade would be an Intel NUC or a used Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny or Dell OptiPlex Micro. They're compact, quiet, and far more powerful than a Pi, plus you can get them with SSDs and decent RAM for cheap on eBay. If you're comfortable with Linux, you can easily set up Umbrel, Start9, or even a custom build. Bonus: they make excellent home servers too. Way better uptime and performance without breaking the bank.
