I am with you. I think the future is something like Umbrel[1].

Because frankly, I would rather have the server running on a little device in my home than having to mess around with things like SSH and a VPS. An app that is running on a little computer in my house is both more understandable and easier for me to maintain.

Umbrel looks really cool. Is it possible to deploy without maintaing your own copy of the bitcoin blockchain yet?

> How can I uninstall the Bitcoin and Lightning node?

> Currently, Umbrel installs a Bitcoin and Lightning node by default and it is not possible to remove it. Over the coming weeks, we’ll migrate the Bitcoin and Lightning node to the Umbrel App Store and your Umbrel would then start from a clean slate.

From the FAQs on their website.
