Rennt a vps or dedicated server, use https://stereum.net to run your node.

No need to trust a service, rent a vps somewhere and use something like https://stereum.net/

🍄 Download at https://stereum.net/ or https://github.com/stereum-dev/ethereum-node/releases/tag/v2.0.0-rc.9

No competitor but you can use https://stereum.net/ and rent a vps somewhere. With allnodes you give them your keys.

There are different approaches, there are guides like https://someresat.medium.com/ and node management software like https://stereum.net/ (disclaimer: I'm with Stereum). Stereum also got video + pic/text guides so you get an impression on how it works. Also, try with testnet first, regardless what guide/software you're about to use!

Unfortunately yes, because there are many linux distributions, windows, macos, different ways to install JDKs, different JDK licensing, etc. I'd suggest to follow a guide like https://someresat.medium.com/guide-to-staking-on-ethereum-ubuntu-teku-f09ecd9ef2ee or use software that takes care of everything like https://stereum.net/

Yes it is - after you receive it you can use https://stereum.net/ to get up and running

Take a look at https://stereum.net/ there are guides for staking on AWS and other providers. Also possible to run on your own hardware at home.

There are options available to run on VPS/servers with a GUI to stake, like https://stereum.net/

I think that parent means also things like CI, release repository, PR review, etc.

These are not easily portable, but honestly is because of this lock-in that I prefer to use separate/independent tools. For my open source project [0], I am putting things on github and it is the link that give to most people, but in reality is just a mirror to the gitlab repository[1], which I use for CI and static page hosting, and the "project management" is done on Taiga [2]

Hub20: self-hosted payment gateway for Ethereum (and any evm-compatible) chains, integrating with Layer-2 systems. (I am the developer, AMA)

I work on a few free software projects as well.

If the former, I am working on a self-hosted payment gateway for Ethereum and ERC20 token. The documentation is outdated, but hopefully I will fix that in the coming days when I make a new release for it. I am mostly waiting for the next major release from Raiden which will bring layer-2 payments (zero cost, instant transfers) to any ERC20 token.
