In my experience, LNbits and Phoenixd (both use very simple HTTP APIs) settle payments a lot faster and more reliable than any wallet that communicates over nostr.
The main downside is just that you need to have a domain or static public IP address.
Thanks. I'm going to start playing around with LN bits just for the hell of it. Its the only way I can think of sending and receiving on SN with a CLN node.
