Maybe it's time to admit lightning did not deliver on its promises. The lightning whitepaper was more than 100 pages long. Bitcoin's was only 8.

It takes courage to admit you were wrong but in retrospect, the big blockers were right. Blockstream and the corporate money behind them are not our friends.

As convenient as that narrative seems, its riddled with inconsistencies. "Corporate money" is not evil, evil is evil, and goodness always prevails.

Lightning works far better than any other l2 in existence at the moment even if it hasnt full scaled the bitcoin network

Where there is demand for it, it works great. Most people don't care about it enough to learn about it.
