look who's back
I have the seed phrase that was given to me when I set up with lightning app. I have tried using that phrase with blue wallet, electrum, sparrow, and not having much luck getting the funds back. I thought the 24 words was all I needed.
Those are seeds for a lightning node. Depending on what lightning node implementation you used (probably LND), you need to go through the recovery process for that node.

I've explained in this old guide all kind of methods how to restore an Umbrel LND node. tested by myself https://darth-coin.github.io/nodes/shtf-restore-lnd-node-en.html but people ignore my guides...

I tried a couple of these. Ended up getting the existing umbrel running again. Thanks for the great guide.

not a good feeling. i was confident i would figure it out one way or another. lessons were learned. and it feels really good having access again.

running a LN node in a bundle software is not the best way. A LN node is a serious thing that many noob s are ignoring and think that just by few clicks on umbrel is done. IT IS NOT.
My simple advice: if you only want a simple LN node for your personal use (not public routing), just install on a PC a LND in neutrino mode, open 2-3 channels with good LSP and done. Forget it.
There's nothing wrong with running a private LN node. https://darth-coin.github.io/nodes/private-ln-nodes-en.html

That makes sense. I don't have any PCs other than a macbook air. And low power is important. That's why I am using an umbrel. Just for private use.

At least they can’t ignore the consequences, right?
