Thanks, let's dive in, shall we? What issue were you experiencing with the Pi4? I'm asking because there is a common misunderstanding that the entire UTXO set needs to fit into RAM, but that is no...

A general synopsis is that with 8Gb Pi4, I cannot add some other apps on my Umbrel OS on top of Core + Lightning + Electrum and some other apps like Jam, Mempool, Nostr relay and Pi-hole. Thats my point, a slow degradation that has made me upgrade to mini-PC within 4 years.

Rather than diving further in that aspect, what are core developers doing to resist or prevent further UTXO bloat?

What we're doing is significantly improving the performance of Bitcoin Core with many releases. Maybe you're just expecting a little much out of such a low-powered device?
