lightning frankly is just good todsy in UX, with a solution like phoenix you have bolt12 for hinding sendere/receiver and a fantastic non-custodial UX just with a smartphone app. If you are a bit more techie and want to try something more powerful and sovrein you can try zeus that start working well.

If you want to take the things serioisly you can always run a node.

I things the UX is became better than monero, its only that people understand how a shitcoin works, and lightning need too study a little the new thing.

i've heard monaros citing the "can't scale to everyone" argument which is absurd because everyone can't use monero either

they don't understand that lightning uses onion routing to send payments, it's pathetic

they do, you just don't listen.

Lightning users love to point this out, but it's only somewhat similar to onion routing.

Every node on Tor is directly connected, or has the potential to directly connect, with every other node. Lightning Network payment channels do not fully-connect.

The entire network and the network topology is also publicly known for routing nodes and natural incentives of this mean traffic consolidates to a few large nodes negating any remaining similarities or benefits of Tor.

so, is this your 50th new npub or what?

So is this your 50th attempt to dodge or what?

No, what happens is Bitcoin maxi say Monero can't scale, when not even lightning scales without 100+MB blocks right now. So it's a moot point you guys bring up.

the point is, from these words you are saying, you have no understanding of what you are talking about.
