> If all hops are connected to the same LSP, I don't think this adds any privacy If you yourself run rack proxy software, it would add privacy for you and for anyone who routes through you, for two reasons: (1) even if everyone *was* using the same LSP, the LSP has no way of knowing that (2) the LSP can no longer safely assume the payments you receive are actually yours -- you could just be routing them to some other destination, since the rack server software makes you a routing node, and the LSP does not know what other channels you might have, through which you route these payments to others > All hops will route through the same LSP There's no reason to expect different proxies to use the same LSP. The list of LSPs I recommended has 10 different LSPs plus another LSP aggregator -- liquiditystr -- which currently has 4 additional LSPs besides the ones on my list. Moreover, using an LSP is only a recommendation -- you can also just start opening up channels to popular destinations or other routing nodes, as long as you get yourself some inbound capacity somehow (e.g. by paying someone).

Interesting that it uses nostr for discovery. Cheers to Other Stuff 🍻

Cool project super. Would be cool to see even a dozen high quality proxies on here as this is a common problem. Wondering if the proxies can eventually be rated for reliability and prioritized to keep the UX good and accountability high.

Thanks Jim! Maybe you can run the proxy software too?
