If you're not familiar with backups better use LND, while CLN is great it doesn't have automatic channel backups on umbrel and chances are high you loose your sats on a hardware defect without backup

start9 allows you to back up your CLN in the event of server death. Reminds me...should prolly do that 😄

But start9 does not support automatic backups and no remote backups afaik. You have to get active, umbrel does everything for you automatically (with led)

correct, i believe that type of backing up is on their road map (not just for lightning nodes but the OS and all services). Who knows when but if the user wants to use CLN in order to receive lightning payouts from Ocean mining (they can possible do so with phoenix but I have only personally used bolt12 via CLN to receive), they would at least have some ability to back up.
