Can't âš¡ you, seem like your Alby redirect is not working
godamn alby node is down again and this time i seem to have lost balance too. i dont see it in the history aswell :omg:
is one of your channels offline?
then the balance does not show as available, but sure not lost
looks like. is it best to start a new one? it shows balance as 148k, minimum is 150k i guess
nah, wait a bit. the LSP will come online again and it will work again.
you could think of opening a second channel with another LSP to have a backup, but that depends on how much of a problem such a downtime is for you.
Typically the LSPs are very reliable and keep getting more reliable as they scale.
Can you recommend a different LSP for a self-hosted Alby Hub?
I can give it a try, but opening a channel is not a trivial expense, and frankly I don’t know what level of service I can expect
Depending on how important it is, you can just wait. They are working on the issue and it will come back online. No action is actually required.
Though I understand that this interruption is annoying. But you know with every of those issues solved the tools and ecosystem becomes stronger.
Thanks for taking the time to respond to all these messages! It must hurt that Alby is taking the heat for this when it’s clearly the LSP having issues.
But since we’re paying the LSP’s to open channels, how should we make them accountable?
Thanks for your understanding!
Megalith generally does an amazing job!!
Issues sadly happen but this also makes the tools and ecosystem much stronger. There are a bunch of learnings from such incidents which will make the products better and more reliable.
