this is because you have trampoline enabled, and we do not have any hardcoded trampoline for testnet4. Disable trampoline in your settings if you want to manually enter a node

The gossip does not sync because we also do not have hardcoded fallback peers for testnet4. See https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/blob/30028520e0b55a48fc59938140648c417659513a/electrum/lnworker.py#L108-L153 PR welcome. (Just go to some LN node explorer and add the most popular nodes.)

Why trampoline nodes are needed to be hardcoded? The GUI can be more informative.
