Set up Alby Hub on my Umbrel. Bought a channel. Funded my wallet. Force closed 2 days later. 💀
We are still in the bailing wire and duct tape phase of Lightning.

Ouch, I was planning on running alby hub, guess I'll just stick to Phoenix wallet for using lightning
That's really strange. Have you seen other complaints about this? Alby hub has been rock solid for me and only ever see people praising it
Dirty.
channel mgmt needs AI
Thank you for this post. You made my decision to wait until the technology matures much easier.
I’ve had no issues with Alby Hub since I set it up a month ago. My only complaint is that I can’t transact with more people and companies with it. 😀
Not that this should matter, but I’m running my Alby Hub node on a Proxmox unprivileged container. Works great. Backups are easy this way, too. Don’t know how it is with Umbrel.
Stop buying channels and start meeting plebs
lol 🤡
I mean, seriously.
LSP’s have their place, and its a nice service if they don’t force close on you. But if they do, its not a fault of “lightning”.. its a fault of you not asking for bootstrapping channels to other people on the network.
Not implying that you have to go PHYSICALLY meet anonther person. Just saying, you’d be surprised who’s help bootstrap inbound liquidity when your willing to expand your network and ask.
what channel partner did you have there?
and we try to make sure that this does not happen under normal usage. so please let us know.
Better to separate the software from the LSP, for example you could use Zeus as LSP
