yes by running your own node using say start9, you can utilize alby to receive and install nwc for paying...its so much better that i think worth the effort. ive also experienced issues the two times ive experimented with mutiny where eventually the,wallet ceases to send amd then in both cases the,m channel was force closed. think its a metal idea how light weight the,wallet is but if u can, run your own youlk be happier 🤙
