Wasabi is a broken piece of crap which no one should ever use in the first place. The only viable type of bitcoin privacy right now is self custodial lightning with great sender privacy and blinded paths plus private channels. Not many are using it, that's true.

Lightning users and bitcoin users are mostly custodial because most people just don't fucking care. If they don't care about self-custody and cold storage, what makes you think they will suddenly care about financial privacy?

Yes, I agree it shoudn't be used, and Wasabi was once the largest coinjoin protocol, as small as it was, and if it's broken like the Nth vulnerability that was recently discovered idk how that helps your case that many people are coinjoining or using Bitcoin privately

"Lightning users and bitcoin users are mostly custodial because most people just don't fucking care."

That and it's much harder to use fully privately vs something like Monero so people don't do it

I never said people are coinjoining, apologies if what I wrote implied that. In fact I think only payjoins between trusted parties are viable coinjoins at this point in time.

It's harder on bitcoin because of missing privacy features and harder on xmr because of delistings, lack of on and off ramps, and generally low liquidity. Privacy is always hard, just for different reasons, but this is protocol agnostic.

That's very fair
