We have various custodians in the Bitcoin ecosystem. Yes, I personally prefer non custodial solutions and will always help someone self custody their funds.

Shitting on a Nostr custodian is a bit hypocritical in comparison when there's a good chance you're using a custodial Lightning wallet. We can be better here.
