Looking at the Lightning addresses of folks on nostr, it seems the preference is for closed source lightning wallets. Why?

From what I understand, it think it’s because of zaps. You need a NIP-57 enabled wallet for that feature and it seems to be available on custodial wallets at the moment

It's not only zaps that favor custodial wallets, It's also LN Address that's not solved for non-custodial mobile ln.

However my question was about closed source vs open source wallets.

Are folks not aware what's what or have we stopped caring?

What’s an LN address not solved for non-custodial mobile LN ?

Non-custodial LN wallets like breez / phoenix have not figured out how to provide LN address yet, due to async problem

I'll be honest, I don't care.

My LN is just a bit of spending cash. Convenience trumps all, because I have like under 100 bucks at risk.

My main stash, is cold.
