Do you have to keep Alby hub open constantly for it to work?
Discussion
I have it running as a docker instance. It's on 24×7
Your node should be running 24/7 yes
No, just log in once
Yes, easy on a node like Start9. Or if you're using their cloud service it should just work
You can run it on start9 or umbrel easily, no tech skills needed.
If you want to receive to your Alby Hub (it's a Lightning node), it has to be online at that time!
