Analyzing Bitcoin Transactions with Lightning Node Insights
Install LND: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md#install-lnd Install Bitcoin Core: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-windows.md#building-with-mingw-w64-cross-tools

Simulate your first Lightning transaction on the Bitcoin regtest network Part 1 (MacOS)
To be able to follow along, you must have both bitcoind and lnd installed.

If I connect a personal wallet to my Bitcoin Lightning node, do I have to open a channel?
If you want multiple users, you'll need multiple node instances. LNbits (mentioned by /u/sos755) does not implement this. Rather, it simply abstracts the funds associated with a single node into multiple logical accounts. This means that the node administrator still has underlying control of all funds associated with the node. See this GitHub discussion for a bit more info: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/issues/2652

I have a dedicated LN seed phrase on a metal seed storage and would like to import it into an LN wallet + would like to have a basic backup of LN data on an encrypted cloud = Which wallet can handle this? Any advice? Note: I don’t want to run an LN node right now.
LND doesn’t use BIP39 mnemonics. https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/aezeed/README.md

Advice/suggestions on running a BTC node (w/ lnd) on a Mac Mini 2018
Both Bitcoin Core and LND have binaries available for macOS, for example. I have not seen an actual guide to set everything up on macOS tho. It's quite similar to Linux honestly.

How do you default LND to use Taproot and enable RBF (for on-chain transactions)?
As for taproot change addresses, this has been the default behaviour since version 0.15.5. Just update your lnd and you're all set.

In the past month my LN node yielded an annualized 0.93%, higher than a savings account. *I am my own bank*!
Sure, I'll make a PR, but they're not very responsive to my PRs. So if I do make it you should expect it to appear in my lightning-tools repo's plugins dir.

Just started a c-lightning node, balancing channel issues
Absolutely. If you look at the rebalance plugin (https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/blob/master/rebalance/rebalance.py) you'll notice most of the code tries to do some best effort guesses as to how to best balance channels. The actual code to compute the route is relatively simple:
-
Fee scaling
C-lightning has a plugin that'll adjust the fees on channels based on the balances in the channel, i.e., higher fees if an htlc would drain funds from an already low channel and lower fees to encourage rebalancing channels with high outgoing capacity: https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/tree/master/feeadjuster

charge-lnd - charge-lnd is a simple policy based fee manager for LND. With this tool you can set fees to autobalance, recover channel open costs, use on-chain fees as reference, use channel activity to determine fees or just use static fees.
