Anyone running an ETH validator node on a Mac? Or know anyone that has? I want to start staking but stubbornly can’t bring myself to buy a PC. I can’t be the only one.

Do you want your Mac be running 24/7 ? Not good imo. You should buy a NUC instead.

Why not good? Inherent issues with keeping Macs on all day?

Yep @dai get an Intel NUC or any mini PC. A mac is overkill and a waste of your money for this. Think of this as a utility, you’re never going to interact with it directly or do anything with it other than keeping it running (and you can VPN from you mac anyways to do this).
