Gm,

Is it weird the first thing I do in the morning is check the mempool?

Given that you are a UTXO it's not that weird, no.

What does it tell you? So if the mempool is bigger then …. You feel good?

Tells me if I should rush to my computer and batch open lightning channels, or load my node with fresh utxos, or consolidate my DCA utxos

I have the sats per byte tracked on my Home Screen widget.

Tells you reward and congestion all in one.

Since inscriptions it’s become an abomination yet very interesting to view periodically.

What widget shows that?

Nope, I do the same while listening to symphony orchestra mix.

How’s she looking?

Very good, optimal price is 5.1sat/vB which is very affordable

I love waking up and seeing the mempool clogged as hell. Then I water my lightning channels and I go on with my day as proud LN maxi.

I do the same thing. It's been better the last 24 hours or so.

What do you consider "better" or worse? Do you prefer it fuller or empty?

Well I don't like paying high fees to move my coin, so... less full is better. I don't like to see a big mempool. Although I set my node to 2GB cache to accommodate a pretty big mempool. Any nodes running Core with a default 512MB cache were purging the entire bottom half of the mempool last week.

There's a lot of talk about your post.
