Not sure what you mean by LN node, I'm still pretty new to all this stuff. Do you mean a Lightning wallet...or what do you mean by "node"? Sorry, I'm still learning.

A Lightning node is a bitcoin full node that runs the lightning network protocol which allows the owner to send bitcoin almost instantly between two people.

This site is a lightning network application where users have to pay to post and can earn real bitcoin.

Got it, just did some reading about it. Not running a node, but may be interesting to try out. I have raspberry pi sitting around collecting dust, maybe I could set that up as a node. It sounds like the benefits are supporting the network with a little bit of profit on the side.
