Yes, I even paid a known bitcoiner for guidance when I started. But were I live, there are variations in tension of electrical network, causing my node to shutdown unproperly sometimes, that's when the first issues happened. It is easy to solve with bitcoind, I did a script that saves a valid state of the Blockchain using almost nothing of storage, then I can restore in place. For fulcrum there is no such simple solution, I must keep an entire backup if I don't want to go through full syncing anytime it happens.
Now I purchased an UPS, but fulcrum and LND still crashes from time to time.
I know how to backup, restore... But it's not always that I have the time due to work in fiat mines, and babies at home. Running a lightning node is not for me at the moment, that's why I felt relieved to see a person with more experience and resources saying the same.
