It looks like a problem waiting to happen. A cross site scripting problem waiting to happen, for example.

Without being Mrs. Toxic, hasn't Alby been accused multiple times of just ripping-off every other LN companies' innovations and passing it off as their own? Weren't they busted copy-pasting Fountain's guide to podcasting, for example?
I've yet to see anything interesting emerge from this team other than copypasta, I don't get the WebLN love, and I'm reluctant to support a team that doesn't attribute credit where it's due.

heja, I am working on Alby and as a open source project and company we take this very seriously. Where do you feel like we did not attribute something or even where we rip something off??
Yes, we screwed up in a podcasting guide where copied parts were published under our name. This was bad and I did not do the necessary review there, but this was resolved (here on stacker news) and corrected.
Our software and contributions are published under open licenses, we build in the open on GitHub, etc. so this is very important to us.
If you have feedback there, please let us know.
WebBTC/WebLN enables web apps to integrate lightning and allows building lightning integrated web apps. Alby (and others) implement this standard.

Without being too much of a princess, why don't you go crawl back under the rock you came from instead of trolling everyone.. some people just can't seem to be happy people are having success.. or do I smell a little jealousy here I mean Alby has been the talk of the town lately for their work.

Just wait till I launch Balby, copy-paste your docs and then see how you feel :)
Hang out a bitcoin conference and see what devs say about the alby team.

I can already say this is pretty useful. even just managing your alby funds in an automated way is plenty of useful functionality.
