I actually haven't manually re-balanced a channel in 3 years accept for the initial balance when organizing a Ring of Fire. Instead I just adjust the fee structure to encourage channel balance over time:

Higher Remote Balance -> Raise channel fees

Higher Local Balance -> Lower channel fees

When I was manually re-balancing I also never got the Thunderhub balance feature to work for me, but I did find that Balance of Satoshis was able to do the trick, and yes, it is a pain-in-the-ass command line solution. But it does work, which is a plus.
