Newb to the LN. I installed LND through BTCPay Server some time ago.
Does anyone have a simple guide on any steps that need to be taken? I could go the SSH route and such but just wondering if there's anything special that needs to be done for BTCPayServer.
Also, I haven't upgraded and I just tried to send a transfer to a peer node and it worked fine. Am I missing something?
