Looking for an alternative to Raspberry Pi for running various tools (including a bitcoin node, maybe a lightning node, other non bitcoin stuff like home assistant etc).

I always hear complaining about RPi and it’s closed sourceness. When I first started learning about Bitcoin I set up a node (just to get up running quickly) on Umbrel on a Pi 4 and it’s been running seamlessly since.
But I’m a software engineer and can/should do better, but am new to focusing on privacy/security on a lower level. Great time to learn.

I don’t live in my home country any more and so don’t have any old computers lying around. Also have limited space, so the size of a raspberry pi is ideal. I might have multiple of these set up to separate concerns. Running in my home LAN (maybe some on wifi, some cable).

What are some recommended open source alternatives to RPi?
Orange Pi?
