Poor excuse to blame these things on users. Good engineering (KISS principle) and UX are laughably bad and not well thought out on LN. Ingwie seems above average in his technical knowledge and I always see him and many others struggling with it. The average person is never going to do all these technical gymnastics.
Lightning is hot garbage. Time to scrap it and figure something else out.
Retarded take, there are well engineered lightning wallets for end users, but a pure lightning node like CLN or LND needs to expose the raw stuff and is not built for ease of use in regards to simple payments. Its built as a powerful tool to interact with the lightning network in all possible ways. Saying CLN is not user friendly enough is like saying the back end software of your bank is not user friendly enough (which they hire engenieers for)
Yes, and consider how centralized and permissioned the backend software of your bank is. Complexity go up, decentralization go down. And that's exactly what we see with lightning. Overwhelmingly used custodially
maxis always blame others and never self reflect. you used the wrong wallets, you connected to the wrong nodes, you messed up your channels... how about build a L2 that doesn't have a wrong wallet, a wrong node, or a wrong channel? a L2 that isn't for pocket change on a microblog echochamber? is that so hard? there is no second-best.
