Not dumb advice at all. Thats great advice. I've used boltz in the past to achieve a similar outcome. Will give terminal a go.
Thanks again!
It's in the guide here: https://docs.start9.com/0.3.5.x/service-guides/lightning/lightning-first-channel
I can help with some stuff if you get stuck. I'm not an expert, but I have fooled with it quite a bit now.
My (possibly dumb) advice is open a channel twice as big as you need. If a million sats sounds good, open one for 2 million. Then you can loop out the extra million with Lightning Terminal and have that as inbound liquidity. You can dump KYC sats in there and then loop those out to help break the on-chain link to you.

Just to add to all that, I have not played with Alby Hub, but it could be easier. I don't know how it works yet. It could be more centralized.
