 Yeah, you know I looked into it again and just thought, when I need it I'll use custodial. Not worth it until the UX is easier because right now the barrier to entry is too high for the normal person that it won't catch on.

 That's right. I sell things using LN and I was fed up w/ Alby's %0.24 or something cut and constant nagging that I go over their limits. Worth the hassle if you're merchant perhaps, not so much as a user, perhaps, when you have convenient custodial services. It's just they need to package things in much more convenient ways. Lately Alby released their "Alby Hub", it looks a bit convenient but I'm not sure if it's recommending you channels and stuff. It has versions of hosted by Alby or self.

 Yes it does recommend channel partners (LSPs)!
