Learning about Lighting this weekend. Core Lighting is definitely going to be my jam for my first implementation to try.
I should have known that if there is something cool to play with, #[0] would have already been there and done that.
The cammando plugin is one of the first things to jump out at me and there is a great video of Will demonstrating his lnsocket library.
I’m on the same road… what are your thoughts on lnd vs. core lightning? Im trying to set up my first lightning node from scratch, but haven’t decided which way to go. Still learning about each implementation.
Core lightning is where I’ll start. I will eventually try LND too, but I like the looks of Core and the ease of writing plugins for it and now with Will’s lnsocket project, that opens some interesting possibilities too.
This post seems like a lifetime ago… how’s your lightning journey going. Any lessons learned?
Busy with the day job and put it on hold for now.
Understanding the privacy trade offs of running my own Lightning node is where I always get stuck.
The technical issues aren’t a challenge for me, but the privacy issues bother me.
