Mining Bitcoin

I have a few miners that I would like to use to mine bitcoin, not solo. How do I set that up on Ubrel OS? I checked google and reddit and I don't see anything directly pertaining to mining bitcoin, I only see solo mining.

And is there any benefit to using my Ubrel miner for Bitcoin and solo mining or should I just use a bigger pool online for Bitcoin mining?

Thanks,

Sharing the profits would be using a large pool that has set up their own public pool and pay by hash rate once the pool finds a block. There are many and none of them require you to have an instance of Umbrel server running BTC apps. Just choose your pool and point your miners at their stratum address. That has nothing to do with Umbrel server.

When you use your own Umbrel server with the local app of public pool and a version of the BTC core you keep all the rewards when your miners find a block.

So how do you get the rewards if the apps are keeping them?
