thanks for that info, multiple channels makes sense that it improves privacy, not just always going through the same route, couple questions tho:

- how do i know what nodes to establish channels with from the beginning?

- like do i want to just jump in with a really big well connected node, or is it more optimal to go for someone not as big?

- is there any restriction on what nodes you must have channels with to use the loop service?

- i’m using CLN, so i think i have to use the “nloop” plugin, does this create any problems for me?

There's a lot to consider. Please check out youtube videos for a more comprehense discussion. I would say think about what is the purpose of your lightning node. If you just want to be able to send and receive, it is fine to connect to a few big nodes.

I'm not sure if there is. But generally, the lightning payment will require sufficent liquidity along the path to/from the Loop node(s).
