Uncommon opinion: lightning still sucks.

Half the time the non custodial solutions don’t work.

The fees can still get really expensive.

Balancing channels is a pain in the ass that most people will not deal with.

I’m optimistic that a second layer #bitcoin solution will emerge but it seems premature to conclude that lightning is the answer when it still has so many problems and other solutions like liquid/fedimint exist. Liquid just works so much better and never gives me a headache the way lightning does.
