After a year looking into the topic, I have concluded that the Bitcoin privacy space is a shit show. Yes the tools are out there, but there is a dizzying array of them, and they all have caveats (e.g. properly dealing with doxxic change, Wasabi footprints, lightning channel probes, etc).

Samourai Wallet with your own node is pretty good for now, but even there all the terms and various tools can be overwhelming for new users.

I hope Mutiny Wallet can really make inroads in this space to make things simpler.
