I'm looking for a non-custodial lightning node that I can run on the Internet somewhere.
I want to be able to send and receive lightning payments, and to be able to publish a lud06 or lud16 in my nostr profile,
I do NOT want a web interface. I do NOT want a phone interface. I don't want to use somebody else's domain name.
I shouldn't have to understand how it works, or even how lightning works (except at a very highi level), I just should be able to run it and benefit.
It should be easy to setup, but I am fine compiling software, I am fine running my own server on the Interent, I am fine with running commands at the command line, I can even write a systemd script to start it and/or put it behind nginx if lightning uses https (I have no idea what protocols/ports lightning uses). I do not want to install package management software that interferes with my system setup (nix, node, yarn, npm, pip, ruby, yuck, blah, vomit!). It should be a simple binary with a config file, a storage directory, and an init script. Why should it be anything else?
Does that exist, and if so what is it?
