I brought down my node for a bit for reindexing and then when I brought it back up all the LND peers’ channels blew up and were force closed by the LND peer?

Just LND things

SHOOT. What does reindexing do?

It just rescans the blockchain for your outputs if your wallet state shows UTXOs that don’t exist or UTXOs are missing

Apparently upon bringing it back up, several LND peers were affected by the unfortunate mess of LND randomly closing channels

My node runs CLN and I did not lose any CLN/Eclair channels

i also never thought migrating the LND seed phrase from one node to another shall FC all channels

😭😭😭

Any good resources on pros and cons of LND vs cln?

CLN is more extensible

LND is fragile as fuck

from my experience
