not for lightning node. fuck i've been trying to figure this garbage out for like a month.
Payments still don't go through but I can send money. I closed my channels and disconnected my peers and I think I lost all my sats doing that on the channels.

What UI are you using for channel management?
I thought Thunderhub and Ride-The-Lightning pretty much dominated, and both these tools make it pretty easy to manage channels.
One tip: Open at least very large channel to a huge central hub such as OpenNode or WalletOfSatoshi. That way, you will have liquidity out to most of the world.
You won't be able to receive any funds if all the funds are only on your side, which is the case after opening a few channels. So, spend some Bitcoin in order to push Sats over to the other side of the channel.
Happy to answer any questions if you have em.
