Yeah, lightning amazed me, after testing Bitcoin as a payment for the first time long before I knew about Lightning, I wondered, does anyone really use bitcoin for payments? slow confirmation times, and high fees.
Stacker News was my introduction to lightning and I learned so much after joining here, and everything feels a lot better now.
Pretty much same for me, I took a long sabbatical from SN but it's what lit the match. I was already obsessed with Bitcoin, and glad I learned all I have before that, but everything clicked the more I used lightning, and realized how much fluidity it gave my movement of sats.
I can transcend applications, to Nostr to SN to my node to Alby to boltz to on chain to a cashu mint or liquid swap (while I'm heavily iffy on those) to cashapp for a friend who doesn't have another app other than that. NWC... It's just streamlined so much and made me much more of an active user.
Long winded way to say, it's been great.
