chiadog VS chia-blockchain-gui

Chiadog is a monitoring program for people who solo and dont want to manually check the log file. I have mine set up to ping into a discord room should there be any issues. From memory it was a pain to set up, but feel free to check it out here: https://github.com/martomi/chiadog - not really needed if pooling IMO.

It’s chiadog.

Check Chiadog , it has a lot of features to monitor and notify events like reduced plot count, hdd disconnect, node out of sync, etc.

Good idea! I created a feature request for Chiadog: https://github.com/martomi/chiadog/issues/322

This would be a neat thing to roll up into a monitoring system like chiadog

You can get chiadog for that, it distills the messages down into more human-readable info. FlexFarmer only makes a huge difference when you're farming on a weak system like a Pi. Solo farming isn't that scary.

I needed make a question regarding the chia GUI installation on a raspberry pi 4. Sometimes the sync gets stuck for me so I go ahead and do a clean install, and use the mainnet db checkpoint from chia.net.

They host a snapshot of the db on chia.net so you no longer have to do a full sync so you could just grab the v2 and manually update the rest of the way which shouldn't take too long (not sure on the exact time i surmise less than a day or 2- its a long time since i've had to do a resync)

yes please upgrade. you have missed a lot. install the latest version from chia.net. upgrade your database HERE. Check your wallet for a Chia Friend

how is this any different than hosting the db on chia.net or github? it's still a single authority saying what the db consists of.

I read everything on chia.net, as well as the white paper. I learned how to farm plots on few HDDs for a test. Checked out most of docs.chia.net. Read through most of chialisp.com What can you recomend for me to read and or watch? Road map to folow? What are the real world use cases for XCH? What is XCH currently being used for? What can XCH be used for in the future (and why)? What are current plans to make XCH a reality (I'm not talking about popularity and fast cash, but usecases for corporations/goverment/public, code patches or new feachers)?

I know what you're saying and technically correct, but for all practical reasons the one on chia.net is the "official"

You could however take that drive. go to chia.net and download the software. Plot to that drive and earn chia coins.

I created a flash drive containing the chia client from chia.net. I used an old laptop I had lying around and formatted the hard drive. I installed windows (or any OS). Through the process of installing windows I never opted to connect it to the internet. Once the operating system was installed I inserted the flash drive containing the Chia client and installed the program.
