Trust me, I absolutely feel where you are coming from. It's always a bummer to find out that hardware you already have running doesn't have an easy to run version of software you want to try out. Been there way too often.

nostr:nprofile1qqsyv47lazt9h6ycp2fsw270khje5egjgsrdkrupjg27u796g7f5k0s8jq7y6 any plans for Alby Hub to be packaged for MyNode like it is for Umbrel or StartOS? Or maybe there is a way to side-load it?

I am not familiar with MyNode. Is the Nostr Wallet Connect app on its own available for that node implementation? If so, that could be a path forward for you. Just doesn't allow for separate sub-wallets like Alby Hub does, so it will have access to your full local Lightning balance. Make sure you set a reasonable budget.

Another option is to use LNBits and the NWC extension that has been created for it. You will need to log into your LNBits as super admin and add the registry found in the below GitHub repo, though, since the extension is not yet available in the main LNBits extension registry.

Aside from the above options, since you're already running a node and there is no point in tying up a bunch more liquidity just so you can zap on Nostr, it might be worth your while to just use a custodial wallet for zapping unless and until there is a version of Alby Hub packaged for MyNode.

Or if you want to try out an eCash wallet, you could go with nostr:nprofile1qqstxwlea9ah3u6kjjszu6a7lrnhqkfh8eptp2z6v0e9558tlkkl2rg20d4vz . Both support Nostr Wallet Connect.
