You are viewing a single comment's thread:

It would be difficult for me to test running a Hive node because it requires a powerful server which would require a decent amount of funding. 🤔💸

Node operators also normally focus on maintaining their node and not communicating about their node. 🤯🤓

Those reasons are why I can't answer your question well. 🤯😅

I have a friend here that just got a Hive node up and running, I'll ask him how he's doing it. Yep, I imagine that to be the case. Some communication with the greater community about system-breaking changes would be amazing, however. All good! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Remember that there are significant differences between running a Hive Witness node and a #HiveEngine (which is a second-layer blockchain) Witness node. 🤓😏

Yep, I know. I wish that either I could run both, or that they were integrated into the same node. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

I assume that the with on your comment mistakenly replaced thought. 🤓😏

It's very possible for both nodes to run on the same server, but when one node encounters a technical issue that affects the entire server, the other node would also be affected too. 🤓 Some Hive Witness operators even have a backup node to avoid downtime just in case the main one fails. 😎

The word was actually 'wish'. I corrected it.

OK, that's good to know. Redundancy is a very good thing indeed. There are Qortal node operators that do the same thing. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

It's usually a good practice to use two smaller servers rather than a single powerful one if you have two nodes that have little to no shared resources. 🤓

Most of the time, I see a VPS with particular specs as noticeably less than half the cost of a VPS that is twice its specs (cores, RAM, and storage). 🤔🤓

Some VPS plans have very low prices that are so attractive, but that when people rent them, they find out that those servers are almost unusable. 🤔🤯🤓

When I moved from Spring (which did not lock the bootloader on their phones, to Cricket (rides on AT&T) which does lock the bootloader in their photos, I lost the ability to root my phones. That's why I'm running stock Android, not because I like it. 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

Maybe you want to learn about Reticulum, which is a tool/protocol for building secure, censorship-resistant communications networks on any hardware that supports telecommunication. 🤓

It's already being used by Qortal (which is already one of the "sovereignty-driven" platforms that you use). 😎

The #Reticulum website says that their tool/network is already in beta, which means that they appear to be working well but not yet tested enough for risks (especially in security). 🤔🤓

When the #Qortal dev team has succesfully integrated Reticulum on their network, then it will be the time for you to dust off those old electronics lying around in your community. 😎
