Unless you're going to do a lot of business with the party on the other side of the channel, it's not worth opening a channel for. Alby runs it's own channels.
If you really want control, look into running Zeus with your lightning node.

Zeus seems to crash everytime i try to connect it to my node from any device.. I am having better luck with ZAP wallet on mobile. connect to own node and control own node from mobile. strangely enough ZAP crashes on linux desktop after self-upgrading. So I use alby and RTL with #MyNode for desktop, and ZAP for mobile, until i discover a better setup.
Which backend are you using?
Local IP or Tor?
Tor
You might want to try out Lightning Node Connect in the Lightning Terminal app on MyNode. It's far more reliable than Tor.
