I remember, but it's not as how you described. It was a bug in btcd, not bitcoind. LND does use btcd, and yes a bug did exist, but updating your node with the patch fixed it. If you don't like LND, you can use Core LN, Eclair, LDK, etc. Other implementations exist.

I don’t like any implementation that forces me to update my node when there is a bug just to get my funds back. My L1 bitcoin can never be frozen. I do not rely on devs to bail me out anymore. I no longer have to pray that they are not bad actors anymore. No bug will bring me down. I no longer have to trust anyone but myself

I'm surprised that you're still running the original version of Bitcoin that Satoshi released. That's impressive.

I run the original code that capped bitcoins supply at 21,000,000. In my view that was when bitcoin really launched. My node only knows of 21,000,000

I am also planning on creating my own bitcoin software from scratch one day. Just procrastinating
