 Use a hybrid approach where you point your nostrplebs address to your bitrefill or to the telegram lightning tip bot lightning address. Or you can use Zeus ln address feature. 
 Alby is another option. They're custodial but it's just move your funds to a non-custodial wallet once balance goes past your comfort zone . 
 we need to go away from custodial. 

What if i ask u for your kraken ln ad dress or maybe a binance ln ad dress ?

 So you missed the original posters point completely.  Yes we need to be non-custodial but no options exist outside of running everything yourself. Are you the zap nazi to deny them the ability to get zaps because it doesn't meet your purity test? If you insist they run it all themselves are you going to write the guides on setting up their own ln node. Provide initial liquidity, that is steep outlay of money for folks in some countries. Manage their channels? Manage inbound liquidity. How to setup the requisite lnbits instance for lnurl and lnaddress support? And since you are pushing for self custody you don't want to run this on a voltage node that uses aws and gcp, two cloud providers known for "canceling" service to companies that don't meet their purity test without notification. Therefore since they need to be truly self custody you will need to write up the guides for the noobs to run their own home systems. Setup DNS services and port forwarding to their system. And how to manage their install.

Until a better solution is available I wouldn't begrudge a person using a custodial solution just so they can receive zaps. A different communication method and asynchronous transactions is required and it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon. 
 More days and more days pass and i just see people who try to be middlemens, try to recreate tweeter or banks, cards, accounts...

Why not letting go and create something else ?
Ok LN need a lot to work, but why not letting go ? 

Everyone see that this no gonna work, but keep working on more rooms to check. It become more and more complex.

In this topic u recommend two shaddy wallets. Phoenix a gov funded wallet and Mutiny an other yet to come desaster. 

Until better solution, i will continue to say how wrong those try out middle men are.
