 Get your sats off of WoS and Alby and Fountain and Stacker news before you get shotgun KYC'd

Go with Zeus or mutiny, it's time.

Or if you're node running, you can run btcpayserver zaps

 Wouldn't it be easier to recieve zaps to self-custodial LN wallets if we have Bolt12?

 CLN and Eclair (Phoenix) are good to go 
LDK as well I'm guessing are done with it
LND is the only major impl that haven't added it yet

 Yeah the caveat being that there should be channels with liquidity and paths that can be found between wallets/nodes

 If you really believe that is going to happen shouldn't you just reconsider your life choices and start investing your time and support in better ways of sending satoshis than Lightning?

Are you really going to put your head in the sand and keep using a broken technology that only works with KYC or huge fees and is basically incapable of onboarding new users?

 Regardless of lightning being perfect or not, it's still good advice to use something that may not be  perfect in a good way.

 All those non-KYC custodians are the perfect decoy for me to "launder" sats
