 How do you search for that? I can't figure it out. 

 🙌🏽 

 What's the query for this? I get very different results here: https://1ml.com/node?order=oldest&active=true 

 Those aren't even in order. Nice programming. 😂  

 Though the ordering in my link seems nonsensical. 

 Weird, those results are only 4 years, our nodes are both 6 years old. 

I was able to get to it somehow but there doesn’t seem to be a querystring for it.

Heres the earliest photo i have of the original #reckless  mainnet crew:

Maybe need to crossreference with this image 🤔

 If i remember correctly rompert was one of the first nodes as well, i think i misremembered the felix one as rompert and assumed the search results were correct. Looks like im getting random now :/

Should reach out to them to see what their earliest db entries are 

 I remember a few of those names, but rompert was definitely an OG node. 

 I definitely remember him as one of the earliest well connected nodes. lnd scum tho 

 We ran both lightningd and lnd in the beginning. But when we had to move to new hardware after a couple of years, there was a weird edge case bug with c-lightning that prevented us from moving its database to a new box, so now we're left with just the lnd.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

 (I've been thinking about migrating many times. But I guess the vanity of it still being one of the oldest nodes is strong. 😅)

 c-otto.de has been around since May 2018, previously using the name ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de. I don't know if that still counts as an old node 😃  

 neat ! unfortunately my node "medea" from around 2018 is no longer running because the server it was running on crashed in 2022 or so-

i could recover most of the funds from a backup, and could potentially resurrect it,, but decided it was easier to start from scratch
