If you run multiple nodes, all nodes must reference all sibling nodes - forming a so called family. This is used by clients so that each circuit only uses at most one of the nodes in each family. Otherwise, if more than one node of a family is used, the admin of these nodes might be able to gain insights into the user's traffic.
This search term uses one of the nodes' IDs and queries for all nodes that belong to the same family - i.e. nodes run by me.
I prefer providing tor relays for free: https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#search/family:008EAE223B110C8EDEE20D06FB0DD4C43E3E0142
I'm using and developing lnd-manageJ: https://github.com/C-Otto/lnd-manageJ/
The fixed version produces much less interesting results:
My node forwarded 2M sat from okx to LOOP, saving someone 2k sat in fees. That's it.

It's part of the new proto file released with lnd v0.18, with additional parameters for
updatechanpolicy in lncli and the APIs. I don't see the reason, but you could check the existence of these parameters if you don't know the version of lnd itself.10 sats \ 2 replies \ @C_Otto OP 12 May \ parent \ on: My inbound fee policy for c-otto.de lightning
Current fee settings don't allow inbound fees.
No. I already have/run a known and reliable routing node. I don't need to advertise its existence, but I want to incentivize more routing to happen. Negative inbound fees don't mean that I don't earn fees.
This only affects my node, not the whole lightning network. As such, I think you're dealing with philosophical questions, whereas I try find concrete answers to problems I face myself.
Yeah, I saw that. I don't run a business myself, but maybe it makes sense to make certain BTC related channels (like this one) free to attract more users?
