Muun is great for mixed LN/on-chain usage. If you use mostly LN then you need something else. Personally I like Phoenix. The good thing is that you don't need to marry any single option. Use as many wallets as you need. But recovery/backup becomes harder the more wallets you have.

It’s maybe fine for very light usage, but it’s terrible for privacy since Muun has your xpub (you can’t even view your own xpub with Muun) and there’s absolutely no form of coin control. All the submarine swaps over time will leave you with a mess of UTXO dust that will get expensive to move out of the wallet and it bloats the UTXO set as a whole.

On-chain bitcoin without a seed phrase. Lightning that can’t zap. What else could you ever ask for in a wallet? 🤣

Muun is really good for people who don’t know what any of this means 😂😂😂

I’m tired of arguing with people about wallets. They can either take my recommendations or not. Choose whatever you want and good luck!

There's no absolute "best wallet". It all depends on your personal situation.

Regarding xpub: Muun is multisig so there is no traditional xpub. You can still get your keys to assemble a watch-only wallet if you want.

Regarding utxos: yes, that's right. It's good for very light usage, what was standard in the pre-Nostr era 🤣
