I've got a spare Raspberry Pi 3, and a 120GB SSD. What's the simplest way to start a Lightning node?

I know that 120GB isn't close to enough to store the full chain, but I understand that this isn't always completely necessary?

I have enough experience to get a Pi up and running as a personal Samba server and seedbox with help from tutorials. I have basic knowledge of navigating a unix terminal. That's about it.

Is there a relatively simple and quick, and - most importantly - secure, way to get a Lightning node up and running? I want to do my part to help, plus I hear I can stack a few sats on fess if I get lucky.

Thanks

(I'm expecting a lot of replies that begin with: "First, get a Pi 4 and a 500GB-1TB SSD")
