That's true, but using a pruned bitcoind will limit its usefulness as a

may be able to use it for a specific purpose (eg. joinmarket), but the
point of my guides is that you can keep adding new software that comes
out (eg. btcpayserver, lnd, c-lightning, esplora) and connect it to your
bitcoind VM without having to reindex the chain.

Makes sense.

This is a good point. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of extra
time/motivation currently to make sweeping changes like that. That's why
my btcpayserver branch hasn't been worked on since November.

Yes, I tried to do it (see earlier email in this thread) but it's not quite trivial. Bind-dir'ing /etc/passwd and related files seemed to break `adduser`.

It's nice to know that someone somewhere is paying attention to work
I've done with these. Thank you for that.

Thank you for doing them!
