lightning is proprietary crap.

it is centralized, run by large corporations who subsidise the fees for now. their goal is to make large profits from those fees. miners see nothing of their gains. all fees go to those centralized companies, not to miners.

lightning is not secure. you can easily lose your funds. many people including myself have lost funds on lightning channel. they get forced closed in many situations, you need to be online all the time or use custodial accounts. 99% of users have custodial accounts, not wallets. cash, strike etc are NOT wallets, they are accounts which require you to hold up your passport with a selfie and send it in. they want your telephone number, email and they own your funds, they can do with your funds whatever they want. they can block your money, steal it from you. it is the same as paypal or venmo.

finally it is mathematically proved that lightning does not scale. even the most hardheaded btccoiners agree.
