 You are a rare exception. Hence my original comment "(something almost no lightning user does)"

A big advantage Monero has over LN is that you don't need to run your own Monero node to gain all of it's privacy benefits (hidden amounts, hidden addresses, obfuscated senders). You gain these even if using any remote node.

For LN you *must* run your own node for maximum possible privacy
Even non-custodial wallets like Phoenix offer no privacy advantage
