One of our greatest mistakes / failed experiments was the Casa Node for bitcoin & lightning. It was a great concept and possibly before its time. Unfortunately the market was too small in 2019 / 2020 and the support costs for dealing with all the complexities of the hardware / software / networking were far too high.

I remember that! It was sad when you guys decided to discontinue and didn't open source what was in place.

I ran a raspiblitz back then, but I wanted the Casa node.

To be clear we did open source the code and I think Umbrel used some of the dashboards in their first version. https://blog.casa.io/open-sourcing-the-casa-node/

Cool! I guess I missed the timing and never actually tried Casa node.
