Taproot, schmaproot, this is what I'm most excited about. Just kidding, of course taproot is obviously a big improvement to the network and data base. My hard drives are celebrating already. But I am really excited about GUI support for hardware wallets. I updated the full node I'm running on my primary (Win10) PC last night but I didn't get a chance to play with it in combination with a hardware wallet. I'll goof around with it and a spare hardware wallet

Taproot doesn't have anything to do with "database" and won't change anything about it. Even if it did, your "hard drive" wouldn't notice it since it is just locked in and will activate in about a month.

When can we expect a combined original Bitcoin Core wallet that supports Lightning?
The usability of core with a Lightning daemon is still a big mess.
And when ask why not do myself. Dev Team has the knowlege and the resources to do that. And even if I could code it would be again a third party solution.

That makes no sense! Bitcoin is not centralized and there is no company or individual owning the right to write code for Bitcoin. In other words there is not "first party" for anything other than bitcoin core to be considered "third party". Any implementation of the protocol (and any extra options such as lightning network) is as valuable as the reference implementation.

Yes its the theoretically idea of Bitcoin but practically a coordinated dev team leads the ship with its updates and there are not 10 different Cores for setting up a full node. And by the way you agree on usability of LN?

That's for consensus rules, and there are already multiple implementation of full nodes. Not everything is a full node either. Other than that there are a lot of features that other implementations have, for example core lacks one of the most popular features which is producing a mnemonic for wallet backups. And by the way you agree on usability of LN?
Of course. And I would love to see LN added to core itself.

I'd say that 0.21.2 is just a bugfix for 0.21.0/0.21.1. It's "after" 22.0 because it was implemented more recently. Still 22.0 remains the highest version.

Man, how big the blockchain is. I think about Satoshi's white paper and I imagine a system where each one of us can easily run a node on their computer, mine and make a small profit. Nowadays you need 400 GB to download the entire blockchain if you want to run the core software, you need ASICs to mine, etc. Are there any plans in the core development to at least allow users to run the core software without having to download and process the entire blockchain?

Bitcoin core is as it has always been a full node and as a full node it needs to download and verify the entire blockchain; you can also decide whether you want to store the entire blockchain and be a full verifying node or store a small number of latest blocks and be a pruned full verifying node but the initial sync has to happen. Additionally there is no need for bitcoin core to add such a feature since we already have an excellent implementation for an SPV client (where you don't download and verify the entire blockchain) called Electrum.

This would be great and I would be happy to support this! In addition to pruning? Still have to download first, but once you activate pruning on your core node you can dump 90% of the chain from storage.

It's odd but it's probably not because of the name change because it appears that the posts are ordered by date but for some reason, the 0.21.2 version was posted on the 26th of October while the newest versions were posted prior to that date.

Ou.. ok maybe it was not about version number. It can be because of certifigate and maybe they did re-sign old ones also.

Ou.. ok maybe it was not about version number. It can be because of certifigate and maybe they did re-sign old ones also. The order is that way because 0.20.2 and 0.21.2 were released after 22.0. There will still be minor releases for some older versions. These include bug and security fixes.
