Been playing with running my own Lightning node.
Question: Will this ever be worth doing for the average person, or even more sophisticated users of Bitcoin? It seems the superior setup is just to hold BTC in self-custody and then just hold whatever you want to spend (and can afford to lose) in the most trusted custodial Lightning wallet.
What am I missing?

@OCEAN How do I receive mining rewards if the relevant wallet is multi-sig. Can you please share how I can sign the relevant message for my BOLT12 offer?
What are people's thoughts on how much liquidity one currently needs to set up a truly profitable #Lightning node from scratch? (without sugarcoating it)
What yield can one expect realistically?
Any resources would be highly appreciated!

I’m convinced there will have to be a few more FTX like events before people take self custody seriously.
