i like that... FOFI i think that would be the thing

if i were to contribute this as a routing algorithm to LND, which is a tire fire of buggy shit, but if i was, it would have to be based off the AMP, but AMP only solves the capacity problem, by parallelizing channels in a path, it doesn't solve the problem of route failure

it uses a cryptographic technique that enables the atomicity of the transmission, and the same thing should be possible to leverage to do multi-path REDUNDANT routing and thus enable failure resistance

this would kill the main weakness in the protocol that its haters point at the most

hell, i know exactly where to look to add this feature to LND, which is the main codebase deployed, but fuck those fuckers and especially fuck roasbeef... i tried to commit like 3 different PRs to get myself in the commit history fixing some legit problem that was in the issues, nope, nada, nix, not one got actioned, by the time someone noticed i was trying to help 3 more commits had clobbered parts of my commit and i needed to update it again... went through that cycle like 4 times with a simple one that isolated the generated protobuf protocols and that was enough for me, 3 times i am being really persistent and they fucked me the fourth time

that blackpilled me on the whole project

the only way i would even try to contribute to lightning at this point would be to be in charge of a LND fork and we would blow them away and within 2 years everyone would be running our node instead, even CLN users
