I have something to confess: even though I constantly shit on custodial wallets and shame the ones that use it, I use one myself.

My custodial wallet of choice: Revolut. Like Wallet of Satoshi, it supports instant feeless payments in its proprietary app.

What distinguishes me from custodial wallet apologists: I don't constantly jerk off and worship my custodial wallet and brag about it to the entire world as if it were actual freedom money being exchanged instead of what it actually is: numbers changing on a centralized spreadsheet.

I was under the impression Revolut has an actual record of financially censoring people.

Like any custodian

Does WoS?

If not, I'd rather take the moral high ground and jerk off.

Just a matter of time, if it did not happen already.

A non-custodial wallet is so easy to set up with virtually no downside. I don't understand why anyone with the capability to do it would opt for a custodial solution.

with the capability to do it + if you already have a raspblitz/umbrell and a lnd node up and running that's being maintained

yea that i wouldn't understand either 😹

If you're not running your own node, then fine... one step at a time. But if you are then there's no reason not to take fifteen minutes to set this up.

Do you think shaming and shitting on people is the way to teach people of the available alternatives? You are very passionate about this, and have a wealth of knowledge to offer. Just my two cents.

Yes I do. And people should stop being snowflakes, everyone makes mistakes, including me.
