Podman has some early support for this already. Once stable, we can add GPU using services/clients/things on macOS into NiceNode. We could already do this on Linux, but have prioritized other things.
Working on automated end-to-end testing. The testing framework can click through the app like a user, which gives us assurance that changes haven't broken anything critical!
While @nicenode is not yet stable on Windows, I've been running a Farcaster Hub on it today without seeing any issues 👀

Doing a major re-write of all the build tools. Unfortunately not a lot to show for internal work like this, but it's necessary as tooling gets outdated and EOL. However we do get support for Linux Arm boards which are the most cost effective way to run a node. Almost done with it!
Just stop & start your Hub in NiceNode to get the update!
