1. With private I mean that when I interact with my self hosted lightning wallet on my node, no one can find out my IP and find out where I live etc.
2. I don't know if Alby is less/more private than LNC. When something works smoother or better, my head thinks that this may only come with a trade off. And if it works even better, there must be a bigger trade off. That's just how I'm thinking here, but I don't know.
3. Do I "un-private" my private node when connecting to services like LNC or Alby? Is now data flowing through these services that leaves footprints behind about me?
As I'm not technically skilled enough for this, I can't imagine what happens in the background. That's why I asked for a setup where I don't have to worry about this.
For example I bought non-kyc bitcoin. Now I want to spend/earn them in my circular economy. I don't want to worry about that the tax office gets better tracking tools and some day knocks on my door to ask questions.
Wil definetaly checknout your posted articles.
Thank you

There is no proprietary connection. We build on open protocols like https://nwc.dev/ in this case. π«‘
Regarding (3), with LNC the Mailbox server can see your IP address.
Have you seen guides about running LND in Hybrid mode behind a VPS? https://github.com/TrezorHannes/Dual-LND-Hybrid-VPS
Iβd echo what nostr:npub1lxktpvp5cnq3wl5ctu2x88e30mc0ahh8v47qvzc5dmneqqjrzlkqpm5xlc asked β which is the private note? Itβs not clear in your note. I assume is the node with just one channel?
