layered security is wise. I wrote the above post to highlight that the privacy assumptions at the heart of much of monero's technology (and LN's too) involves trust. I don't think it's possible to completely remove trust, but you can always reduce the trust assumptions, and make things easier for end users.
In many ways I think LN does a better job of this than monero, for example, self-custodial LN wallets -- except Phoenix and Electrum -- use source routing, even on cell phones, and source routing has similar ip-hiding properties as dandelion. But monero wallets, at least on cell phones, don't even *try* to do dandelion. So a typical self-custodial LN wallet is superior to a typical self-custodial monero wallet in this respect.
In Electrum you can toggle between delegated routing (trampoline) and source routing.
we did some zap tests on this note… we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, at accumulator@bitcoiners.zijn.cool, over a period of 1 minute. Six of the zaps were successfully paid... please check for 6 satoshis received. problem: we found that your lightning address server **did not* properly produce zap receipts, and/or didn't send the zap receipts to the relays specified in the zap. (the zap spec requires that the zap receipts be sent to the relays specified in the zap.) this means a nostr user who zaps you might not see a number appearing next to the ⚡ icon after zapping.... if you wanted to fix this... you could try getting a free rizful lightning address -- https://rizful.com ... if u get it set up, pls reply here so we can do this ⚡zap test again.
