#PhoenixWallet is the best Lightning Wallet in the Game 💜⚡️
Every time I open the app, I'm impressed with it's simplicity and functionality

also, if you actually need to do a real lightning payment to buy something: it just works everytime.
For US users, what my advice?
Nope.

ZEUS is great also
zeus is great, but it doesnt cover the same exact use case of phoenix today. With zeus I experienced a lot of force-closures, a lot of failed payments, and lot of problems.
Its more "sovreign" cause you can use whatever lsp and have a full control over your channels. Its also more private.
But its far away from the great UX of phoenix.
Different tradeoffs👌
Run your own Lightning node and be truly self-sovereign
phoenix is a lightning node. It sacrifice something in term of self sovreignity (mostly due to lsp-lock-in with acinq) but shit like this are unlikely to happens:
tradeoffs.
Oh, it happens on Phoenix as well
This is fundamental to how lightning works
agree with you. But the narrative seems incentivize crappy solutions as the only way as user of "being self sovrein and run your own node" while phoenix is a self sovrein experience and is an actual node (still lsp-lock-in with acinq, and other tradeoffs).
For example, electrum is cooking something like phoenix but multi lsp/trampolines and is super cool in my opinion.
Hopefully no end-user will need to run something like lnd to zap around to be self-sovrein and have privacy.
