thx. the zapping thing is clearly not for me!

It's just that self-hosting a lightning node requires a computer that is online 24/7, so isn't right for most people. That's why cloud based solutions like nostr:npub1jluy3twvf338v6zlujzzdhjkzjy8ezj34ksydr8vw8a6jwp89ygshpp2kq and Alby Hub are the right solution for most users.
yes i am now learning that but they ended my channel even just from the alby extension closing…so even alby seems like not very helpful plus they did not explain how it works (or won’t work) at purchase. i like trying out this stuff but i am pretty disappointed. don’t see how lightening/zaps can really work yet as an exchange system. seems totally risky & pretty unreliable. also inet can be unstable even in major cities. and if you get to the countryside well then…at the very least you should not lose a channel for a broken connection that is nuts.
