When I closed out my channels, this is the suggestion Alby made:
--
The best way to close a channel is to do it while it is online, click on the 3 dots on the right (see screenshot), then execute a normal closure (Not a force closure).
The funds on your channels will go to your Savings Balance (which is the onchain side of your Self-custodial wallet).
Then you can withdraw the funds from your Savings Balance just as any other onchain transaction.
