Check out this site. It has options for you. Many people choose to use Wallet of Satoshi, but there are others. https://lightningaddress.com

Appreciate your reply and insight, I’ll check it out!

Checking it out today, my first lightning transaction! πŸƒπŸ”₯

Welcome to the land of freedom πŸ«‚

The easiest way is downloading a wallet of satoshi πŸ‘ŠπŸΌ

That seems to be the fan favorite, I’ll download it today and see how it works :) Ty!

Isnt the favorite because its custodial, but it’s the simplest to begin πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

Try to have a second one like breez or phoenix that arr non custodial πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ

Non custodial options reduce/remove the need for trust but then it would mean I would have to run a lightning node? Sorry I’m familiar with the BTC basics but trying to catch up with βš‘οΈπŸŽƒ

You dont have to run a node to have a non custousial lightning wallet.

Download breez or phoenix and see by yourself πŸ˜‰

I understand, the wallet of satoshi did not generate keys for me to custody while these other options do. The UI is very nice for Phoenix. I will play around further so I can avoid asking stupid questions in the future. Thank you JosΓ©!

There aren’t stupid questions, if you need something or have some question to plebs put the #asknostr and some pleb will answer you πŸ‘ŠπŸΌπŸ«‚
