I'm saving upwards of 96% in fees by using my node to make payments through my predyx channel as opposed to using say a custodial "lightning" wallet like Aqua or Misty Breez

I probably only made about 1k sats off of them, so it wouldn't have been worth much effort, but it was fun to watch.

Are you using lnd? some autorebalance software like lndg?

LND, yes. And I've learned not to waste days on autobalance software. If you have good channels, that should all sort itself out. At least that's been my experience so far

Congrats! I’ve heard running a lightning node can be a good way earn sat and it’s something I would like to do but I don’t even run a Bitcoin node. I did you get started?

for the average pleb, it is not a good way to earn sats. But it's fun and empowering for sure! There are lots of node running tutorials on youtube. BTCsessions makes some good ones
