What Hacker News says

2 sources
> resources to get started with running a lnd node? I use https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz, easy to assemble and install and runs silently in a corner. > getting it connected to a larger network? Connecting to others is simple. What's more difficult is getting inbound connections, ie. others connecting to you. Historically you asked people to connect to you but recently you have https://pool.lightning.engineering/ (integrated into Raspiblitz) with which you can buy incoming connections easily. > do you make any money from lighting fees? In short no. I made ~$30 from routing fees in 6 months and spent around the same on on-chain fees (opening/closing channels). It's just an experiment for me (same with bitcoin itself) to see how it all works not something i expect to generate money.
