Okay, listen up plebs—stop calling Start9 a “node in a box.” That’s like calling Bitcoin “just magic internet money.” Both takes are equally cringe and show you don’t get it.
Here’s the deal: Start9 isn’t just some plug-and-pray gimmick. They built StartOS, a fully free, open-source Linux distro made for self-hosting. Download it, flash it, boom—you’ve got full sovereignty on your machine. Zero loss of functionality.
Sure, they sell beautiful hardware with StartOS preinstalled (and yeah, it’s ). But that’s not the product. That’s the funding model. Because unlike the endless “open source charity” trap, Start9 actually keeps building. Hardware sales = dev fuel.
On top of that? They’ve got world-class support. Not just “lol read the docs” forums. Real people, real answers, covering 25+ sovereign apps. That’s how you onboard a new generation into sovereignty—without gatekeeping, without excuses.
And yes, they’re hardcore about Bitcoin. No shame, no hedging, no “blockchain not Bitcoin” nonsense. Bitcoin is the center of gravity. I love them for that.
So yeah. If you’re still thinking Start9 = “node in a box,” you’re NGMI.
Use my code LOVEISBITCOIN for a discount. Stack sats, stack sovereignty.
Simplicity. Privacy. Bitcoin. That’s Start9. And that’s why I’m obsessed.
