It is pretty impressive that in the 1960s 90% of homicides were solved or cleared by law enforcement. Today its only 51%. As a side note maybe we should expand the patriot act and give the law enforcement even more spying capabilities. Oh wait, in the 1960s they didnt have any of that and had to do things the old fashioned way, you know, the detective columbo way, and 90% were solved compared to today where the law enforcement has all kinds of power and can barely solve 50% of muders. Ooops that turned into a rant. SORRY

I'm climbing the IT ladder and learning to drink from the fire hose. I think I'll be in the perfect position very soon with my experience, knowledge, certs and diligence.

I cannot wait for SN being a big plattform. Nowadays the top posts are <1000 sats because everybody tips a few dozen. But imagine a world where every top post is actually serious money. That would be amazing.

I have been playing for some days with a Lite Lightning node on Voltage, opened some channels but I don't get any traffic even setting 1 sat outgoing fee.
Until now I am losing my money, opening and closing channels.

How are you liking Voltage? I was toying around with it myself about a week back but I started working on other BTC projects & haven't got back to it.

It's not perfect but it is clean and simple.
You have ThunderHub console to manage your LND node.
It does not come with BOS or LITD installed so you have to install on your server and set up as remote node.
Bu update to 0.15.4 (because of the bug) was superfast and a matter of just clicking the "Update" button.
Security seems good as well.

Getting started with Lightning is hard and the current user experience doesn't make it any easier for you. I'm currently working on https://cyberhornet.network to bring a whole new experience to running a Lightning node.
In the meantime though, I'd recommend having a look at https://lightningnetwork.plus/swaps to swap channel openings, this will give you inbound and outbound liquidity between other nodes so that payment routes can start flowing through.
In general, it's best not to close channels. Think of the money spent opening/closing so far as a learning investment. I'm sure you've learned a bunch by getting your hands dirty that will serve you well moving forward.
Keep stacking friend!
