People who want to sovereignty on lightning can run their own node. At the end of the day this is all that matters, and what lightning achieves. I run my own node, zap out of it, run my business out of it. It is working as intended.

If people choose custodial solutions that’s on them. I use custodial wallets alongside my node. The other day I just moved some of my node’s sats into wallet of satoshi to pay for something because my direct-to-cln wallet wasn’t installed at the time. It’s a flexible systems that enables lots of different use cases at different levels of custodianship.

The reason I prefer lightning over things like liquid, etc is that at the end of the day it has a feature called unilateral exits, which always allows you go to back on chain. The FUD around how lightning centralizes bitcoin is bizarre to me, it’s just a tool for setting up onchain bitcoin to be utilized more efficiently and with lower fees.

You can always recover base-layer decentralization via unilateral or cooperative exits if you need it, so the FUD is nonsense.

But I hate France.

Flags are most often used as non-voluntary enforcement tools, often for war. Kinetic or Social. The commies have captured the flag, pun intended.

The real challenge that is causing all this division we see in the world is when /weirdness/ is laced with politics.

Bring back /weird/ without politics.

Burn all the flags.
