My node is up and running I just haven’t opened channels. This will be a great intro

Open one small channel (can be around 100K sats) to Lightning.Watch. It keeps an eye on your node and sends you alerts via Telegram. Once you have that, go to nodestrich.com and join up!

Cool I’ll dive in when I can have alone time with my node 😂

Just do it between diapers. 😁

Just a FYI, you don't necessarily have to use lightning.watch. There are other services out there that don't require a channel (bolt.observer), this way you can use those sats in an actual channel and hopefully use it for routes

That’s true, but I think you have to have at least one open channel to add yourself to an Amboss group, so this one is an easy and cheap way to get started.

Why not use those sats to open a larger channel to a node that's going to route?
