I wholeheartedly agree with your article. I too worry about the possibility of another blocksize war. In my own case, though I have learned a lot going down the umbrel/raspberry pie route and I'm getting better with command line stuff, I don't think I have the technical ability to even take a position or pick a side on a war. I would have to hope umbrel was on the right side or that they would make a nice simple yes/no toggle for me! I know that's sad, but I bet a lot of people are in my position.
The node I'm talking about here doesn't include the lightning network. Its just the timechain. When there is a disagreement, the devs who are having the spat, typically release a Bitcoin client you can download and install. That an on-chain node and a lightning node have become synonymous makes this so incredibly difficult to talk about.
Simple "spat" you can take part in right now, I'd love to be connected to more peers who have full rbf enabled.
Like the article says, knowing command line or having a special OS or special hardware isn't really needed. Just a computer with some disk space that's turned on and connected to the internet with a GUI program known as Bitcoin core running.
