Alby has a pretty nice step-by-step guide. They're still having growing pains and a bunch of us got our channels force closed, shortly after setting up Alby Hub.

I still like it and think it's pretty simple, but if you don't need to set it up immediately, waiting another week or so, would probably be wise.

You can connect Alby to your own node. That's what I'm doing. However, it is apparently very easy to set up a node on the Alby Hub too. I think @Undisciplined is doing that. He might be able to give you more information.
