Becoming a validator while not being tech savvy
StakeHouse are building tools exactly for people like you! We have the wizard which is a setup assistant meant to guide anyone through the different steps to become a fully functional validator on the Ethereum 2.0 network. You mostly just read the instructions and click on the next button. It supports mainnet and the various tesnets, but I would suggest starting with a testnet first.

Daily Goerli: A whole lot more detail on the lighthouse db corruption issue I posted about previously. There's a warning that's been quite frequent on my erigon nodes for a while that doesn't seem to have any impact on its performance. I asked if it should be downgraded to INFO here.
