How many full nodes do you have running at this moment?
I'm at 4

installing the certificate for ".local" addresses works well on linux and mac, but can't get it to work for firefox on Windows.
Surely, they must have Tailscale in another start9 repository?
also popular VPN locations :)
actually, now it seems it was likely due to the inscriptions bloat. a lot of LND nodes having issues

That’s my weekend. How about yours?
plenty of nuances about it, but it's essentially a major psyop
could well be. sucks regardless. But I guess that would be in their settings rather than mine
had my lightning node off for about 2 hours (rearranging the server space) and I had two channel partners close on me. It's okay guys, patience! You should give at least 3 days before closing a channel -- or am I wrong?
it's not a bad point. lightning wallets are hot wallets anyway, and you usually want the most reliable tech and something you want to use.
I think the custodial scare is just that you could be rugged at anytime if you leave it there too long
I now know at least 4 nostrians in real-life
but inspired by @npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s I've also got a LOL domain for lightning address sending (⚡yael@yael.lol) but it's a bit slow because of the reverse proxy to my node
This is the standard guide, but I’ve never gotten any of these to work (because you essentially have to run a clearnet IP to your node). The easiest method is to have a BTCPay server where you assign lightning addresses and just try to get a custom domain pointing to your BTCPay server instance. Another way to do it is the LN URLp protocol to forward to getalby using your own domain
it's somewhat unfortunate that most lightning addresses here are through custodial apps, but it's undeniably true that it is still technically challenging to set one up noncustodially (DNS is an absolute bitch).
i have this one yael@yael.at but also through a BTCPay server sats@pay.yael.at but these took me hours to set up and costs me server time to keep them running.
ideally, much like Paynyms and BIP-47, we'd see more noncustodial wallet adoption of lightning addresses
will likely have to launch a new relay in order to implement the newest features — hang steady folks.
