Is Alby having issues? I'm unable to zap a few people with Alby wallets.

Been having an issue since yesterday π₯
Rugged
Possible those users didnβt transition to Alby Hub before the custodial wallet service shut down.
I'm afraid it is. It isn't working reliably.
Its technically not an issue, they are trying to get people who have Alby to upgrade to Alby Hub... If you don't you can't use your sats... They were converted to "fee tokens". I recommend either get a new wallet or upgrade...


Good point and that's what I was thinking at first, but I would have thought @walker made this change. Maybe not?

Sorry they are fee credits.
Maybe heβs still recovering from the $100K party π€£
I can Zap @Alby so you may be correct here, Corn. I'm surprised Walker didn't migrate.
Oh he was there? Shame.
I've been having some issues yes. Some people said that they cannot zap me and some people I cannot zap. Running AlbyHub with plenty of inbound/outbound liquidity for zaperlis
Idk π
Okay. The plot thickens. I can't zap you. 

#Nostdress & #Umbrel solves this

I believe they turned off their custodial service, so just Alby hub now. Could be wrong.
I'm having alby weirdness too, using alby hub, alby plug in is no longer reporting lightning balance, weird
There is an issue but it is not resolved yet.
I have Alby Hub btw...
Of course we are! π
We had two short outages today, should be fine now.

Interesting. Side note, I'm also unable to top up my zapstream balance since like last week. I had to go through @Kieran once and the last top-up I had to ask people in chat to zap the top-up message cause I cannot.
I'm going to guess that issues still exist then?
Oh.
Yes still ongoing issue
yes
They did but I'm running the hub.
I love the main net. It's simpler and I can always send or receive BTC.
Maybe their system is down because I cant get to the webdashboard either
For what it's worth, I'm also unable to zap @walker or @TheGrinder. I use my external Zeus wallet to send and receive zaps. I am able to zap @Derek Ross and others fine.

I get a lot of "Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON" when I try to zap people.
I can access the hub.
Try mine
I can get my hub too just not my getalby dashboard: 

Seems to be working now
Zapped you from my albyhub to yours. π
Alby was discontinued on the 4th of January, I still managed to remove my assets via LNDHUB on my Zeus Wallet and send them via Lightning Network to Coinos.
We have a long way to go π
thanks!
yay!
January 2025 and everyone getting their first taste of Alby Credits and Cowboy credits
Oh I see. weird
Ahβ¦ maybe they broke something. Dev in prod π€£
Switch to Alby Hub. It's solid tech.
Tried to zap you again and still same issue. When I try to zap you I don't even get an error message on noStrudel. The payment window just stays there until I close it with the process spinning / timing out (but without returning an error)
I can zap Walker but not you.
ditto.
from my alby hub, matt has a routing timeout
