Question: apparently my 1TBnostr:nprofile1qyt8wue69uhh2mtzwfjkctnvda3kzmp6xsurgwqpzpmhxw309a6k6cnjv4kr5dpcxsuqqg829c7gzngg5du03fdcltkt9zzdqkz4jaw9ef94cf0z6munv2r0zsg8cnv5 node ran out of space yesterday. Can I prune the blockchain and still runAlbyhub and BTCPayServer (or do they require the entire chain)?Or can I connect an external drive to create extra space for Bitcoin Core?
For a core lightning node there is no need of the full chain but access to old blocks can be needed, I use apruned node with trustedcoin plugin to fallback in case my node pruned the needed blocks
Haven't heard of the trustedcoin plugin before, sounds good!I'm a bit rusty on my Lightning Node implementations but I believe I'm running an LND node 😅
It is actually really good, it uses bitcoind if available and if the block was pruned it uses different publicblock explorers like mempool and others, best of both worlds 😁Happy to help if I can, I will take a look if LND has something similar, I never used umbrel so I'm not surewhat options you have but the blocksdir option for bitcoind may be your way to go
You can't switch from bitcoind to LND right? It would require a new setup?Thanks for the help! Appreciate it! 🙏

Yeah it's an LND node, just checked. Went ahead and pruned the node and everything still seems to be working fine. Fingers crossed though 😅🤞
