Newcommer: I'd just like to make sure I got this right...
There seems to be a Rust implementation of the server (electrs via https://github.com/romanz/electrs ). It was recommended as part of a Medium article on how to set up an Electrum server. So far it seems fine - but, what are your inputs on it?

Can't get addresses to load in mempool
romanz/electrs. This is a common choice for its low resource requirements, and most full-node distros use it. But while this implementation works great for basic queries, it will struggle with heavier ones (e.g. looking up addresses with many transactions)—especially when running on low-power hardware like a Raspberry Pi.

Wasabi vs Electrum
To gain some privacy by using Electrum you should set up Tor on Network preferences or by installing your own Electrum server via Electrum Personal Server, ElectrumX or Electrs.

Question regarding setting up electrum hardware wallet.
Electrum can be connected to you full node if you also run this: https://github.com/romanz/electrs

Full node still impossible ? Umbrel ? Mynode ?
Electrs: https://github.com/romanz/electrs (Instead of electrs you can also use "Electrum personal server" to connect Bitcoin core to Electrum).

⚡ Raspibolt Monthly Rundown 🌕 May 16th, 2022 - Guide & software updates, new Github pull requests & issues and other news
LND v0.14.3 - Release page - Upgrade guide This release contains only a series of bug fixes, and doesn't introduce any backwards compatible changes (database migrations, etc) from the prior version. Notable fixes in this release include: a fix to an invoice registry related deadlock, a fix for an edge case when running the remote signer operating mode, and a fix to ensure that 3rd parties sweeping an anchor UTXO doesn't lead to the wallet having a fragmented internal UTXO state, and a fix for a payment state inconsistency (a payment looks like it was stuck though no HTLCs exist).Full release notes.

Bitcoin indexer recomendation
If the electrum API provides what you need, you could use a Bitcoin Cash electrum server

Is there a BCH Node that Provides Querying of OP_RETURN contents?
I think only ElectrsCash exists for more powerful querying of BCH, but there are also these options for BTC that could maybe theoretically be ported to BCH:
-
Is there an ElectrumX server for BCH?
Thank you! I have not run a comparison, but I think it’s safe to assume that fulcrum is more performant in CPU usage, ElectrsCash more in disk usage. Both servers support the full electrum API, but have different API extensions that will be useful to developers. ElectrsCash is derived from electrs which is very popular in the BTC camp. Both server are written in efficient languages (ElectrsCash in Rust and fulcrum in C++), unlike ElectrumX which is written in Python.
