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.

Escaping Surveillance Capitalism, at Scale
I really thought this article was going to offer a solution, not just enumerate the problems. I'm already all too familiar with the problems.
I like what Umbrel[0] is doing. They're essentially expecting that just like computing was able to move from centralized mainframes to homes, servers are poised to make the same migration.
I think they really need to solve redundancy, though. If I'm to self-host anything important on a home server, I need to know I'll have some way to use it even if my home server fails, especially if I'm not at home when it happens.
I'd love to see some kind of system where I could partner up with other Umbrel users for backups/the ability to restore connectivity. If I knew that in an emergency, I could call my friend in town or my brother out of state and there was some procedure that would allow me to connect to an encrypted backup of what I'm needing, I would feel a lot better about taking responsibility for my own system.
