      From Reddit:

      “I bought an Umbrel.com home server hoping to have a dedicated device to run my favorite software on. I spent $500 and got an Umbrel.

      Their “app store” is small, outdated (from an app update perspective), and filled with cryptocurrency junk. I should also mention that its difficult to use non-approved software, requiring your own GitHub repo with config files, docker setup, and a few other things. No one-click button to import software.

      The hardware is half as good as a used 1L mini-PC that you can get on Amazon for $170, and itll give you more control.

      The Umbrel has an HDMI port hidden inside, so if you want to use it you must cut a hole in the side for it. The only way to accees its interface is with a slow, buggy, and heavy web UI.

      Don’t buy an Umbrel, buy a $100 used 1L machine and save yourself a headache and $400.

      EDIT: I asked for a refund and was denied since they don’t offer them to anyone. Huge red flag!”
