"This is also why I tell anyone thinking about setting up a "routing" node they have a fundamental misunderstanding of what Lightning is and how it works, there are no successful routing nodes and its a fools errand to attempt it"
Let me tell you in all humility that you have no idea what you are talking about.
It will not be easy or usual but I know that there are several nodes with constant benefits and they are not from services like ACINQ but from plebs.
Gentlepersons, there is no need for loose talk nor the calling of names. I ask you to please refer to the Gentleman's Guide, in order to disabuse yourself of any confusion on these issues: https://docs.megalithic.me/the-gentlemans-guide-to-routing-nodes/a-node-for-a-gentleman

This may warrant a primeagen-esque video for some color, will have a closer look but at a glance good write-up 👍

In a few rare cases people that established their own network effect through longevity and elite management may scratch out out a small yield, very rare, odds are though these people are blowing smoke up your ass "trust me bro"
not be easy or usual
So you're just talking to talk...gtfo

I've been building in lightning since 2018 and have talked to several hundreds of the most dialed in node runners on the network
Not one serious person would ever recommend running a node for the purposes of generating routing yield
