I’ve done a lot of research and landed on Eclair because:

1) ACINQ runs a very large node with many wallets channeling to it

2) It is dead simple in API and functionality

3) Actively developed by one company with a lot of funds hanging on that code

4) Excellent modular architecture

5) Everything extra is a plugin (I have two running, Amboss ping and autofees)

6) Supported by RTL, LNBits, BTCPay server

7) Production ready backing of PGSQL that I run on two servers and have synchronous replication

8) Crash only mentality, there is no shutdown routing

9) Clusterable if I need to scale further

10) Have excellent metrics that can be ingested into Prometheus and used with provided Grafana dashboards

11) Stable release cycle

12) Channel splicing and other goodies

And many more things …
