AlbyHub does support several backends (LND, CLN, BreezSDK, Greenlight, Cashu etc) - but it also come with its own embedded node (using LDK), which is the easiest nntaleb way to start for fresh users. Just deposit on-chain funds, press Open channel and off you go. Or alternatively, purchase an incoming channel from an LSP

Thanks digging more
biggest COOL thing own embedded LN node (hope no sudden force channel closure issue here)
no need use other backends at all
GUI friendly to open channels
rest goodies of HUB store nwc etc...

Yes. But you are still not fully immune to force closes; these are part of the LN network and if your channel wants to FC on you, they can - no matter which node you have.
But the recommended channel peers in AlbyHub tend to be pretty good in that regard.
