Not really the two choices you have are:

1. Mine on a collaborative pool like brains or ocean and setup lightning to get micro-rewards. If you hit a block you still only get a micro reward.

2. Mine solo on CK pool or public pool or if you search Nostr you’ll find a Dutch pool where a lot of bitaxes mine. You will get zero rewards (you won’t need lightning) unless you hit a block but if you do you’re getting a monster payout.
