Replying to Change this if you want

I guess installing and running relay is a must have skill! My goal is to learn as much as possible on my raspberry pi (see how it will go) and then scale it up if there will be a demand🤔 A lot of stuff to learn but really exciting times! Reminds me when I got in #bitcoin and started learning how to self custody, run nodes etc.

I tried getting a lightning node running. It was the most annoying thing I ever worked on. Very frustrating.

Was any part of the process most difficult?

Being on a Mac. The software I was using kept saying LND wallet password invalid. I have no wallet yet, I couldn’t create one, I don’t have a password. And there was not enough documentation.

The. When I tried to reverse my mess. My node and sparrow wallet didn’t want to communicate the same way, and spent more hours to get those to talk to each other as they were.

Of course I ended up connecting them in a completely different way after that.

I’ll check it out. Thanks. I guess the challenge I had is that I am using a Mac.

Could be a pain in the ass if your mac isn’t always on and running - I use a dedicated raspberry pi and it works well enough for like $200 bucks
