Not sure, I don't really keep up. There's definitely a connection to the WEF, I just didn't realise they were behind LND. I've been unimpressed by the forced channel closures & they're reluctance to incorporate Bolt 12 is a concern. My umbrel is needing to be decommissioned & I'll firing up a CLN Node on Start9 I think. I need to order a 2TB SSD because 1TB doesn't really cut it anymore.

I think that I'll go the CLN route too. It's disappointing that the channels can't be really carried over from the retiring node. A fresh start it is. I've got an old NUC with a weak processor (Celeron N3060) with a 1TB SSD and 8GB. I didn't want to junk this, or upgrade it, so I've tasked it solely with running the bitcoin-core daemon. It could chug along for another 3 years yet and do it comfortably. Other stuff can go on the more-powerful node. electrs, CLN, mempool can go there and make RPCs to the bitcoin-core daemon. And it'll leave me with space for Immich, Nextcloud, Transmission-OpenVPN, Pi-hole, Plex, etc.
Sounds like a good plan. I've got 2 Nucs with decent specs but 1 is a little more decent than the other. Might use the good one for the Bitcoin stuff. I still need that 2TB SSD though - it might have to wait until next week.
