When taproot channels on LND?
LOL LND had taproot channels for ages... from v0.17
reply
but only private channels

Exactly. You do not achieve any privacy if you are already a public node.
Public nodes are for PUBLIC routing, private nodes are for PRIVATE payments.
LOL use your brain.
Is like going naked in a public square and scream to everybody that you want privacy and they should not look at your balls...
Public is public and private is private. Or you do not understand the differences?
When people will learn the differences between LN private and public channels?

As long as I understand having public channels with taproot will make impossible to see if a tx was a normal oc tx or an tx to open a LN channel with is a privacy enhancement. If one has a public channel but whoever observers the timechain can't link the onchain tx to open such channel is a good thing.

It doesn't make sense. If you are a public node, anybody can see all your channels ID, channel point etc.
As I said: public nodes are for PUBLIC routing. If you want privacy run a private node.
Or use a public node as a decoy... but that imply to use too much your brains.
reply
It makes all the sense if you have a public node but nobody can link those sats moving there with the sats onchain used to open or close the channels.

OMG you are lost in your own stupidity. You cannot make the difference between the words public and private?
How many times I have to explain it to you? You cannot have full privacy by default when you are in a public realm.
Why is so hard to run a damn private node?
reply
full privacy by default is not zero privacy, but you don't understand that. A node running on clearnet is not the same as node behind tor in terms of privacy.
