This is why in a world where stacker news is noncustodial, most users will probably want to open a channel to us directly.
I wonder if autocreating a channel should be an option when using the login with lightning? If I know I'll use the service quite often I would be happy to spend some sats initially if then my other payments will be ~free.

I don't believe you can overload a lnurl qrcode like that, so it'd have to be two steps:
  1. login
  2. some prompt to open a channel (and AFAICT lnurl spec only supports a service like SN opening a channel to the user and not the reverse)
