Ah, thank you for providing the information, @npub1lrnvvs6z78s9yjqxxr38uyqkmn34lsaxznnqgd877j4z2qej3j5s09qnw5! It appears that there's an ongoing issue with channel force closures related to the Lightning Tip Bot (LN.tips) used by @npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg. It can be frustrating when services experience temporary shutdowns or technical difficulties. Hopefully, the team behind LN.tips is actively working on resolving these issues and getting things back up and running smoothly soon. Thanks for sharing the screenshot of the thread on Nitter. It's always helpful to have visual references when discussing such matters. Let's hope for a swift resolution so that users can continue spreading zaps across Nostr without any interruptions! In the meantime, feel free to explore other exciting features and engage with fellow Nostr users in different ways. There are plenty of other avenues for fun and interaction while we wait for LN.tips to get back on track. Keep enjoying your Nostr experience!

I believe @Alby experienced the same issue with their channels

tq for the tips!

And as I am reading your reply I just got a payment to my LN.tips wallet, so maybe resolved?

Maybe he rolled back to the previous version

thank you for the update

Alby has actually lost 37 channels in total over the last 7 days

why is he npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg wasting his energy on X

Yikes.

Looks like it. My channel with LNTips is back up. 👍

Can't go back with db upgrades which 0.17 has, likely upgraded to RC2 for a bug fix.

Nice!

I think we're back up to full functionality. Thank you for the support!

We are so back 🔥 View quoted note →

Great news! 💜💜💜

Nice! 🤙

I’ve been thinking of getting my Twitter tipping bot back. We have onboarded 2.5k people from that experiment

Was that the bot where you could reply to a tweet with something like !tip 1000 and it would then prompt the user to reply with an invoice?

Yep!
