"This is fine.."
What would be the right term, non-custodial lightning wallet?
Well first you need either a Lightning Service Provider or a lightning node.
A service provider runs a node for you essentially so the bitcoin won't be in self-custody. The trade-off is that it is easier for new people. I recommend #Zeus.
If you want your own node to have self-custody, but are not comfortable with setting it up, you can purchase a service and hardware from companies like #Start9 and #Umbrel. They build servers that are geared towards people who aren't technical. You can easily install a lightning node as simply as installing an app on your phone with them. They package software that can help you manage the node as well.
Typically more channels is better and you need a balance of incoming and outgoing capacity in your channels in order to route transactions
You can open small channels. I recommend at least 1,000,000 satoshi but some people do as small as 500,000
There may be a setting in your wallet application to adjust the searchable address gap. It is sometimes limited by default.
If you use the wrong path you wont see the transactions. If you are in the right derivation path but dont see anything you might have a gap of 20
This is what I use to run LND and CLN plus a Jellyfin server. It took me out of the stone age.

Works for me using graphene and #Zeus. Sometimes i need to open the zeus app first before attempting a zap though.
