Installed #AlbyHub to try out. The install is very simple.
Still a little unclear as to what it is doing?
if it's self custodial why do we need a link it to a Alby account?
It's not backward compatible so it doesn't seem to connect to and utilize your already existing wallet so any funds you have in your alby wallet isn't instantly available in albyhub after installing and linking it.
Is it utilizing GetAlby's lightning capacity? Is that why we don't need to put up any sats to open a lightning channel? Is the hub just sending a request to alby to open a channel to the hub to allow users to receive payments?
