SN: we want everybody to use self-custodial wallets
Reality: "i can't find route to pay the SN invoice..."
SN stackers: Darthcoin you are a fool with your crazy ideas... #523570
Darth: yes, maybe I am crazy, but I know what am I talking about. Stackers are not ready yet for this move. They barely know how to open a LN wallet and SN already want everybody to run properly LN nodes. hahahahaha
Dude, I'm a complete idiot, so from that perspective, opening a lighting node seems pretty daunting.
I'm working on learing all of this stuff, because I actually find it very interesting and important to do, but it's definitely going to be a while before I have a node up and running.

Learning is a long curve.
I am not saying that you should not do it or you will never be able to run properly a LN node.
What am I trying to say is that for running properly a LN node, require time, patience, a lot of reading and testing and... some capital and hardware.
It took me 3 years, almost 4 (2018-2022) to really understand how all the mechanisms and tools for LN are working, testing all days all available solutions. btw... Saylor was barely discovering Bitcoin when i was already testing LN nodes...
And that's why I wrote all those guides, based on my experiments and learning so you and other noobs will read them and not have to take 3-4 years, but maybe 4-5 months until you will reach that level when you could say "ok I know what am I doing with this LN node, I know how to manage it."
