What good is Lightning when major Lightning nodes can't even communicate correctly with self-hosted nodes? It's like the major Lightning Nodes block TOR and VPN's

The incentives are such that there will be nodes to bridge those connections until regulations and compliance get in the way

What nodes are bridging connections? My node can't even talk with the big nodes right

I don't know, but you might need to diversify your peers or channel partners. Add some peers and see if your reachability improves.

Is there an easy way to do this? Is there a way to find peers that will offer paths?

I like nostr:npub17tlh448s3tfdfgymehqdkdn52as59qsrax0n9h58pk54wcmqyc2qklzsxj You can find nodes that are both tor and clearnet capable. Check out their stats and connect to peer's accordingly, maybe even open a channel or two.

I can't use FixedFloat to do LN-DASH swaps anymore for Spritz, since Strike magically can't find any payment routes after the last few times it went through without a hitch.

See!? It's this gay shit that makes lightning centralized to a few major nodes

people clearly laid out the arguments against lightning 7 years ago and said this would happen, but nobody listened

Seems like its decaying fast

The perfect tell to the baddies beats

It was never fresh to begin with, so the decay was preexisting.
