Why does this look different from what everyone else is running?

What Software/Hardware are you using here? I see you you have an answer above but is this not on android??

Personally am interested, If you don't mind care to share how to go about running of a node on mobile Cool

No I'm running a
optiplex 7050
start 9 os w/ 1 tb ssd
Sounds like a model in the Dell family  Roll Eyes

Yes you are correct it is a Dell but,I'm using my android phone with tor to connect  to my node while I'm away, if you have anymore ? I'm here

Thank you NotATether for the challenge that made us try the Bitcoin core. As I said before, I have tried to run it on another device and It was supper laggy. My system was freezing every few minutes when I was running Bitcoin core but that was in Windows 10 operating system. This time I tried it on my laptop which has the Windows 11 operating system and I didn't face many lags. I didn't face any technical difficulties but there were some internet issue. I wish I could run a full node instead of a pruned one. If I am not wrong, my pruned node does not help the network. Or does it?

Pruned nodes still verify transactions, arrange them in the mempool ordering them by fee, and serve a limited number of recent blocks from the disk to other nodes (peers) who ask for them. So in fact, pruned nodes really do help the network. They just cannot be connected to for the purpose getting the historical blocks during the Initial Block Download (IBD).

Interesting. Are you running it in mobile device? I never knew it's possible.

I don't think I have seen you in this thread before. Therefore this will count as your first day.

Ok ty forgot to make my post when I first started syncing then totally forgot but glad I'm here now.

Day 4

Progress: 13.38% sync



Out with the old, in with the new...just released having the right hardware means everything when running a node and unfortunately, I thought I would get away with limited RAM and using a mechanical drive which slowed down this whole process, and after going through the thread I cracked it thanks to the right information and now I have jumped onto an SSD, better ram and wouldn't be happier with the results  Cool

And the pruning feature on Bitcoin core is gold for those of us with limited space Smiley

Progress: 4.44% sync





Just a side note, if it's not much of a hassle it could be a good idea to encourage new entrants to include  PC specs so that others know that their systems can handle the running of the node based on what others are running...
