I did and here's what happened. There were some rough spots with broken links when I tried to find documentation for the initial setup. Evan helped me out and said he'd fix the broken link. I was able to find documentation on how to open a channel from my server's lightning node to my Zeus lightning node and that worked. Donation to my local makerspace worked on the first try, and accurately reported that is succeeded (which is not the case with LNBits+LNDHub+BlueWallet which frequently reports failure when the payment went through). Big point in Zeus's favor here. The problem I had with Zeus previously is losing sync with graph/chain data and not being any to use it anymore. I had to close all my channels and recover funds on-chain, and I couldn't even do it with Zeus; I had to use Sparrow. I've seen multiple people I follow state that they had this same problem. My conclusion is that the jury is still out on this one. The new type of node is too limited in functionality for me, but if the embedded LND node really can stay in sync with the graph/chain data, then Zeus will have earned it's reputation as a reliable wallet. For me, reliability is by far the most important feature. If I ever go to make a payment and it fails, there better be a damned good reason (e.g. no internet connection, no path to recipient). If I get wedged into a situation where I have to close all channels and recover my funds via a desktop wallet, I don't expect I'll give Zeus a third try. God, don't let me down! PS if the new Rust-based embedded node reaches feature parity with the embedded LND, I'd like to switch to that. Sending backups to some server somewhere is 100% a deal breaker for me. Maybe I'll be able to switch to that before the embedded LND node gets wedged. 🤣😅😶‍🌫️
