Yes I've used many and support many who are adopting LDK. I think Phoenix is the best UX with reasonable fees but it is no longer available to me. I like Mutiny as well and it is my preferred non-custodial LN wallet, but they've had problems with their LSP scaling. It is all very early.
Even once all the kinks are worked out, there are fundamental challenges with a LN wallet that make it impractical for small amount spending wallets (eg $20 balance) that are used to zap in nostr or on Stacker News.
There are other solutions such as e-cash that don't have that problem, but e-cash systems make other tradeoffs. Thus back to my original point, which is there's no single solution that serves everyone's payment needs. The good news is there are many solutions in the works, and LN is the open payment protocol connecting them all so users of different systems can seamlessly pay each other. It is quite beautiful.
