Before Alby was available only through an invitation code, Alby hosted lightning nodes for free to all users. Alby's payment experience was very stable and smooth. I'm curious about how much work and expenses it takes for Alby to maintain a large number of users in the lightning node operation and personnel? bumi (npub1xv8…lk3x) 🫂🫡

This is honestly a really sad day. As Mutiny wallet is sailing toward the sunset, I hope that Lightning wallet devs will step up their game to fill the void they left. We need self-custodial wallets that run a node on your phone. We need options. We need the talent.

We probably also need another wallet that mixes Ecash with Lightning to cover everything from very small balances to very large balances. One that let's you start with 100 sat and holds your hands and opens channels for you as you acquire more sats.

I've been building Lightning wallets for years before I started working on Cashu. I know how fucking hard it is. Ecash is child's play compared to Lightning's complexity.

My deepest respect goes to the lunatics who put a fucking Lightning node in the browser and pushed LDK to places where no one else has ever been.
