Elephant in the room: all Lightning infrastructure is centralizing around 1-3 companies that offer zero privacy.

I'm not the best with computers, but it wasn't all that difficult to setup StartOS on an extra PC I have. Took about 8 hours to sync knots and then an hour or two to figure out how to connect LND and ride the lightning. I think its worth doing.

in the same boat. i’m at the LND and Lightning Terminal are installed, but now i have to learn how to open a channel or send onchain btc. no rush, just learning as i go

i got LNbits set up for my little girls Lightning Piggy too. that was the main motivation for wanting to get my LN going

it just doesn't help your privacy THAT much if all your transactions have to go through a specific entity. better for sure, just not what we were promised.
