If you allow one setback to derail your dreams, you simply aren’t committed enough.

You have to stand back up and go again, and again, and again, and again.

What if your umbrel node goes down, then a week later your voltage node goes down, then the hotel you are at has blocked port 22 so you can’t ssh into a functioning node that you carry with you? Can I quit then?

DONT USE UMBREL FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

You are correct sir. It took me a while to punch in on that. Which do you recommended? Start 9, Citadel, or my node?

I have not used start 9 or citadel I only have experience running a LND node, the setup is fairly simple if you know basic linux / shell commands and are comfortable w your operating system and navigating bitcoin core directories and bitcoin.conf stuff.

It is time for me to learn how to setup LND with bitcoin core. I have a few commands down but not many. I’m definitely not afraid to get in there change everything until it breaks. It won’t be any worse than what I have now. Thanks for the suggestion!

If youve already used a UI version like umbrel you should know what you have to do to maintain it IE backup channels and seed phrase and that stuff, the only tricky parts are doing it all from command line. its totally doable though and arguably more valuable as it trains you in linux

Nice that is too cool. Thanks for the vote of confidence that helps because i have limited command line “commands.” You are right I do know what it takes to create a channel, keep it balanced, back it up, and keep the seed phrase. How did you learn command line tools?

You earned a follow sir!

Let that fax in ! That goes for anything one is pursuing! If you tap out you were never committed to begin with .
