If Nostr has taught us anything, we gotta make LNURL easier for node runners

Use LNbits
They ain’t bad got the current setup hooked to that 😅
LNbits is amazing from my use of it. Curious what it doesn’t do that you wish it did?
My only recommendation for it is to have an extension that automatically routes the payment to your node, if that isn’t available already
Just to be sure I’m not being confusing, what I’m talking about is running your own LNbits installation, not the LNbits website. When you run your own installation you can point it to your own funding source/wallet. You don’t even need to run LNbits on the same machine as your funding source, and in fact it’s better if you don’t.
Oh I thought you meant the website 😅 I gotta try that now and see the difference 🫂
DarthCoin has written some great guides on using it, and the instructions on the GitHub are very easy to follow. I also recommend joining the telegram group. Here are some links:

And the LNbits website is great btw. Best to use it for demos or testing. But only have full admin control with your own installation 💜🤙
Yes. Unfortunately things like Umbrel are hidden behind Tor for privacy, and exposing your node's IP can be risky.
True but same way how many apps make it easy for you to create a channel it should also become easier for people to create these invoices over time, maybe by then they’ll find a solution
