The routing? I understand a there are giant nodes with lots of liquidity acting has big hubs but I don’t think they are gate keepers.

The custodial wallets? Doesn’t make lightning centralized since you can just self custody on your own lighting node.

The development? Not knowledgeable enough about that but I know that there are several implementations

Overall there are trade offs you make with instant payments. It’s basically a multisig where you and your channel partner are keeping a bar tab what’s spent and protecting from bad faith actions.

Again none of the relays we are on charge by the word. I am open to be totally wrong on this. Enlighten us!
