I would really like to run one eventually. Right now the cost is a bit beyond my budget, so I am taking it slowly. I am active on Stacker News and Nostr, where I also share my experiences with Lightning and what I learn along the way. If the sats I earn from my posts and contributions add up over time, I would love to put them toward setting up a Lightning node. That would make the whole journey feel even more meaningful.
some major nodes have contact info on Amboss but many don't , also usually you can open directly going to Amboss or LTN+ search for the channel you want to open to and in the connect menu you can find the tor and/or clearnet address, on LTN+ you can create private swaps and invite the channels you're interested .. LTN+ is my favorite a triangle swap gives you both 1 inbound and 1 outbound channels so you start already balanced
I am interested in Lightning too, and I had not really thought about this side of it. It is interesting that even when you are ready to open a large channel, simply reaching the right person can still be difficult. Another reminder that Lightning is not only about the technical side.
