Just thoughts out loud.

If you tell me to recommend a desktop wallet for bitcoin, it's clear to me:

Sparrow

If you tell me to recommend a bitcoin wallet for mobile, I have it clear:

Green Wallet

If you tell me to recommend a custodial lightning wallet, it's clear to me:

Blink (like WOS but open source).

If you tell me to recommend a self-custodial Lightning wallet:

Sorry, I'm not clear, I'm not convinced by any of them.

Phoenix is the one that works best, no doubt, but I am totally against applying a 0.4% fee to send through Lightning.

Zeus and Blixt, I like them, but let's be honest, comparing them with phoenix they fail a lot, although zeus has improved a lot using their LSP, even so, it's not even close to the experience I want to recommend a wallet to a friend.

The green lightning wallet looks promising, but it is the one that fails the most.

As for mutiny I don't share their philosophy of being a pwa.

Breez is perhaps the most balanced app but I don't like that the app has functions beyond a lightning wallet.

On a side note, I don't recommend custodial lightning wallets, but if you can use them to your advantage, why not?

You can use them as a barrier to your private nodes, for example to receive small donations in Nostr.

In this nostr:npub1lxktpvp5cnq3wl5ctu2x88e30mc0ahh8v47qvzc5dmneqqjrzlkqpm5xlc article it is very well explained.

I understand that many of us here are potential aspergers and do not see certain nuances, but we have to make an effort to see them 😂

Muchos se pierden con purity tests y repiten las opiniones de otros como loros.

Las wallets custodial son herramientas. Tienen pros y contras. Lo importante es entenderlas, entender las diferencias con las non-custodial, y actuar de forma consciente.

El finger pointing de algunos libertarios cuando alguien se sale de su dogma mas estricto es acojonante.

Tal cual, no podría estar más de acuerdo contigo 🫂

Yes, for example I use on nostr a minibits.cash LN address.

Is it custodial? Yes.

But is a good decoy... and also users are encouraged to swap their ecash into a self-custodial wallet more often. Is not hard.
