 How can lnd be so incredibly unreliable? I run a completely stock lnd instance with 1 channel and it somehow started to take 100% CPU and go crazy lmao 
 still confused why people use lnd when cln is extremely fast, lightweight, reliable, extensible 
 Lnd is still better integrated in all kind of apps, Zeus has no commando support for example, umbrel has automatic channel backups only for lnd etc.. 
 It took me forever to find all the plugins I needed, and there is no thing such as LNDHub and stuff - so getting a proper LNURL setup is not very trivial.

At least from my experience. o.o 
 Same here - probably due to the sheer amount of information/support for LND out there, since it’s the most used implementation.
My first node was LND too for that reason. I only switched when I ran into disk size issues. Never looked back! 
 I like lnd 🙈 
 Haven’t experienced that at all and I’ve been running the same cln node nonstop since 2018 
 What hardware specs? Looking into CLN too.
