how computers connect, relays, IP's, DNS, etc. something easily digestible for newbie. u were working in IT so it's obviously very basic for u.

as u said, people jump straight into running routing nodes without having any idea how internet works, so i want to avoid that mistake.

Yes, I have an IT background with 20 years of experience in networking and servers.
But for running a LN node you need at least a basic knowledge about how these things work, you don't have to take a degree of science in networking.

Just learn, plenty of tutorials on internet about this stuff.

This explains so much. Why you can be cranky for one.

Working in IT is often a thankless job. You get very little attention when things work which is most of the time. In the 0.1% of the time they don't you get angry ungrateful people.

Be kind to your IT people.
