Learned a valuable lesson re: Lightning Nodes.
Apparently if you travel for any duration across a couple days, resulting in your hub being offline...your channel gets forced closed.
There was 19k sats down the drain.
Would have been better off sticking to my original plan of just using boltz to move my sats on-chain when I hit a certain threshold.
Otherwise might as well just keep my sats in a custodial Lightning wallet; which defeats the purpose of self-custody.
Oh well...live and learn!
