Anyone else running a pruned Node ?
Curious how others are doing it are you using pruning too or did you go with full storage?

I'm also running Bitcoin prune node. I adjusted my prune to 5gb, I can take more than that but I think that's okay for me for now. I wish I can give those blocks without deleting them but I will not have any space left to perform other task. I have some other big file of applications that are taking much space like some games and I don't want to lose them now but I will still look for a way to get an external high ssd capacity so as to run the full node for better experience.

Wow... Thank you very much..
I have been thinking about running my own node too for a while... But I have been thinking about the performance of my current computer if it will be able to handle such task .. but with things I'm more confident in trying it out

You can run node with any computer of your choice but it's the specifications of the computer that is going to determine if yiunar going to use 2 days to finish initial block download and fully synced your node or wait for weeks before you complete the initial block download. If you have a big ram like 8gb ram with ssd let's say like 120gb, you can run a Bitcoin node easy without any delay, all you have to do is to download Bitcoin core like he instructed, install set your prune parameters and then let it sync for you.
