Well first you need either a Lightning Service Provider or a lightning node.
A service provider runs a node for you essentially so the bitcoin won't be in self-custody. The trade-off is that it is easier for new people. I recommend #Zeus.
If you want your own node to have self-custody, but are not comfortable with setting it up, you can purchase a service and hardware from companies like #Start9 and #Umbrel. They build servers that are geared towards people who aren't technical. You can easily install a lightning node as simply as installing an app on your phone with them. They package software that can help you manage the node as well.
This isn’t true. A Lightning Service Provider typically provides you with a Lightning channel. It’s still self-custodial.

My mistake
What would be the right term, non-custodial lightning wallet?
Self-custodial and non-custodial can be used interchangeably but we prefer the former
