sure, there are a lot of people doing that. the recent thread about
updating tor recommended that we remind operators that raspbian supports
tor just fine.

assuming you're talking about [0], it looks like the consensus weight
has just ramped up. you might need to wait a little bit longer for the
usage to stabilize. you might also want to increase the
RelayBandwidthBurst. IIRC, 5 Mb/s is a little low for a Pi 4.
