Thanks for this comprehensive reply. You gave me a lot of information. I am running a UPS and I have a standby pi and hard drive. I am now a little worried because I do use lndg app from app store. I know I could accomplish the same thing through the terminal, but I lack that proficiency right now.
As I said, it's ok to install 2-3 more tools that need to run along with lnd. Not more than that. Tools like lndg, thunderhub, RTL are obviously hugely convenient tools, but that also means that you expand your attack surface. Security comes at a cost of convenience and it's up to you to decide the trade-offs and accept lower convenience for higher security and evaluate for yourself if the loss in convenience is worth the gain (how much ever it maybe) in security.
