I’ve seen that installing both Core and Knots on your nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll can cause issues.

Is the same true of Core Lightning and LND? I see LND is an optional dependency for the self-hosted nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub, so I’m just not certain what to run.

Also, what makes a dependency “optional” and what is the best practice there?

It’s downright incredible how easy #start9 makes it to level up your sovereign stack from like 25 to 95. Your own node(s)… self-hosted cloud storage, RoboSats, Nostr Relay, SimpleX, password manager, mempool, Jam conjoins, and the list goes on…

Did I read that joinmarket transactions don’t actually look like coinjoins the way whirlpool does?)

I have much to learn. I love that.

I’m running both LND and Core with no issues. As for Core and Knots, I’m not aware that you can run both at the same time.

Do you mean Bitcoin Core + LND, or Core Lightning + LND?

My (limited) understanding is that running both bitcoin core + knots can cause issues for services that rely on the node as a dependency, since they share the historical timechain database.. something like that!

I realized I wasn’t clear after reading my original response. I run a LND Node and a Core Lightning Node on the same box with no uses.

I didn’t know you could run BTC Core and Knots on the same box. It is my understanding that nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll has trouble differentiating the two (for selecting the icon) because Knots is a fork of BTC Core.

Oh I gotchu! We were saying similar things

Tbh I’m not sure if you *can* run both Knots and B Core. I just know I’ve been told not to try 🤷‍♂️
