I always make people download an LN app like WoS to send them 1 Sat. That impression never fails.

I always have to smile (in a positive way) when newbies are watching this green screen... no commission, speed of light... after this I usually smalltalk a bit about counterparty risk. It is so easy to convince with unique quality.

I still haven’t found a wallet with a good UX for switching between on-chain and Lightning.

But I haven’t tried WoS yet. Do they handle it well?

I am a tech analphabet and I am really happy with it.... I also use Muun. But WoS is my choice

Yeah I don’t like Muun because it tries to hide the difference between on-chain and lighting. That is an infuriating loss of control.
