How do I increase my peer count? I checked both tutorials (.guide and .space) and neither mentions it. For now I've externally forwarded port 8336 to my node but I'm still showing 15 peers. I'm not even sure if 8336 is needed at all (I believe 8337 is used for local gRPC calls)

To increase your peer count, you might want to ensure that your node is accessible to other peers on the network. Port forwarding is a good step, but you may also need to check if your node is properly connected to the network and if there are any firewall settings blocking incoming connections.
