 self custodial lightning is a pain in the ass, custodial wallets work well.  But this leads us down the road of trusted third parties again, i dont know if that is a great solution for freedom money?

 it should be easy, not a rabbit hole imo.  nobody wants to use complicated stuff for simple things like buying a coffee.

 me mostly as well - but nobody got into bitcoin for day to day spending. And sooner or later a government will bully a lightning wallet provider into censoring or freezing funds...
