Don't get me wrong. I am not saying you should not run a node.
I am just pointing out an important aspect that many users do not know: we have 2 types of nodes, public and private and each could be run in different ways.
As I explained here #486306 and here:

I know. I just had this dream of running a routing node for the overall good of the Network. But it’s starting to feel a bit naive.
The node that I can’t connect to was my routing/ln payments node. But as soon as my SN zaps were failing I knew my node has issues. I was also using that node to sell channels on magma. The node would be fine if it was clearnet but it’s behind tor and I wonder if it’s Tor or something else going on with my software that is causing the random outrages

Just do this:
- buy a cheap 5 bucks VPS with a public IP
- run a VPN tunnel with wireguard between that VPS and your node
- your node will use that VPS IP as "public IP", not your home IP.
Voila! Your node is fully on clearnet and will not have issues anymore.
Thank me later.
