I was running a lightning node just for fun. I only opened some channels in the beginning and left some open for some month. There was nearly Zero Traffic. Finally I closed my Lightning node again. why do you open and close Channels frequently?

I don't actually open or close frequently but I recently had a few channels close because of bugs in Lightning. I chose which channels to open based on what users of @v4vapp are actually doing and where they're sending to and from to try to minimise the fees I and they pay. So I avoid connecting to small nodes like the one you probably had and avoid paying routing fees.
If people want to send to Wallet of Satoshi or GetAlby through me, that's very cheap because I have channels with both those destinations!
