What’s the best way to get Bitcoin onto the lightning network?

I actually still use BlueWallet LN they since stoped adding LN wallets unless you have your own node.. but from on-chain BlueWallet to LN BlueWallet there is a very low fee depending on the memepool fees.. Strike is another cheap way even though they deal in cash LN you can still buy bitcoin and send via lightning or on-chain very low fees

What I did is opened a channel with Phoenix for about 2m sats for larger purchases on lightning. As I spend I refill the channel with Strike. I then also use WoS for zaps and refill that from Phoenix.

"Best" is really dependant on your situation, what you plan to use it for and what trade offs you're willing to make for convenience vs control. If you are trying to get larger amounts into lightning you'll probably want to run your own node.

That’s a great strategy I may implement that myself..

agreed there are many different ways to use these wallets depending on the use case in your situation.

1 and 2 are my top two as well! Though I never thought to back up my Phoenix wallet with BW. Do you just put your Phoenix seed in BW for easy access to the funds if the channel closes?

The wallet will show nothing in BlueWallet once you put in the seed don’t worry it’s because your channels are open once closed the funds will show

Thank you!
