That's confusing, because I've been able to send and receive sats on these channels before (including from SN).

You can send using your private channels to anywhere else, but the only one who can pay you on a private channel is your private channel partner (at least afaik ... given your private channel is with an LSP there might be something else going on).

unless you add route hints like Phoenix does but I think that requires manual configuration

Is possible that your peers disable them.

Is there a way for me to see this?
reply
In Alby? No. Not yet, they do not have those features. I hope someday. In a public explorer? No. Are private, you will never see them there. If you run a LND node install Thunderhub next to it and you can see them if are disabled or not. Or through CLI.
Let's be clear. Disabled it doesn't mean closed. Just that payments are not allowed through them. Temporary and can be re-enabled anytime.

If that's what happened, what's the cleanest workaround?
reply
Close them and open new ones with proper LSPs.
reply
Alright. That raises my next question: How do you determine who proper LSPs are?
I chose the first two suggested by Alby.
reply
Olympus, Blixt, Megalith, LNbig are ones that always work nice. You could open with SN node a private channel too. But depends if you will use that node only for SN or other things.
You could try with LNserver and Flashsats but they are not too much focused on private channels.

I'm using LSP's from your list. Do you still recommend closing the channels and opening new ones?
