A question to Lightning experts. I am running an Umbrel node which connects LN channels via the Tor network.
When looking for new channels to connect to I see a lot of channels which only offer clearnet and no Tor.
Is it possible to connect to those clearnet channel as easy as it is to connect to Tor?
I think I would have to open ports on my firewall to enable LN clearnet connections, right?
