Yeah, my setup does not rely on lndhub.io. I actually had the exact issue you described when I first started using it, and it’s a bad look for onboarding someone that way. I don’t keep any sats in BlueWallet custodial channels. Everything I use runs off of LN.tips, Alby, and my own node.

At this stage in the Lightning Network wallet user experience, there is no perfect answer. I’m just sharing what I’ve found works best after a lot of testing!
