The nodes will not be highly technical to run, it will be packaged neatly in the desktop app with simple on and off switches for which nodes you want to run. Anyone with a home computer should not have an issue contributing to the ecosystem, that is the goal.

I figured as much...
I guess I have homework to do.
wen? But honestly this is what I'm looking for and I think other people as well. Theta does this with their software for the Edge node which allows you to simply toggle a switch and use your normal computer to start contributing to the network as part of the CDN network or to help with encoding. That's what I'd love to see and take part in as I have the processing power I just don't have the knowhow myself to actully set it all up via Linux which was shown to us as the example. It's been about 20 years since I worked in Linux lol I very much so look forward to the application update that provides this. I also think that's what will make 3speak truly powerful and be able to expand more later into live streaming and other video type services. Massive potential and for sure a ton of work but it's getting there.

You can run the nodes from any machine, including your home pc. Just download the desktop app and the rest is plug and play.
Nice! Now that I have a general idea for what it's all supposed to look like, maybe reading through the 3Spk/Spknetwork posts will start to make a little more sense to me. I'll be giving it a go.
Is one of those easier than the others? Do you have a recommendation as to where newbs should start?

Depends. For instance I can encode my own video from my laptop in like 10-15mins. CDN relies more on your internet connection. Storage requires hardrive space. Imo we will see many Hivers earning speak via encoding/CDN and i think for storage you’ll see more high end players. Just a guess.
