Don't think people like Muun over Zeus, some aren't that much into the technical side to run their own Node and some of those who can, don't want to pass the hassle of managing channels, rebalancing, etc.

Muun was so easy to use. Only problem was when emptying wallet, needed to do an onchain tx with fees. Do prefer non custodial if possible.

When moving between on-chain and lightning afaik you will always have to do some spending regarding fees.

I still have reliability issues with the connectivity on Zeus. Great interface, beautiful when it works, but it's not as reliable as I need it to be for my use case (which is day-to-day low value txs of $50 or less)

As soon as Zeus connection is something other than tor, it'll likely be my preferred method.

Surprised that Phoenix isn't getting a lot of love. It's a sweet wallet.

Agree. I like it because it just does lightning and does it well, in a noncustodial manner.

Team Phoenix here. Amazing wallet.

🎯

Agreed. Phoenix is pretty good too.

You can use LNConnect if using LND or use tailscale / zerotier

What's zerotier?

Details in links above

E2E encrypted pipe between your devices. Let's them treat each other as if they are on a local network

Highly recommend setting up a a free hosted controller and playing around with it. I've been using ZT as a solution for a few years now. Can't say enough about it.

Check out LNC. Solved all my Zeus connectivity issues..

Skeeen

LND connect for Zeus it's way faster and more reliable than Tor.

That's interesting. I use it over tail scale and haven't had any issues. Granted, I'm not a heavy user like you probably. More of a hodler myself.

Define “people” 😄, my dad is a bitcoiner but he definitely does not need Zeus
