Do you agree with me?
No. A system like SN with paying sats for each post / comment / reply and then zap sats to a post should stay more or less custodial.
It will create too much friction for a meaningless result in self-custody. But they are too scared pussies about being "money transmission machine" and they decided to throw the dead cat into your hands.
If you will run a real LN node by yourself you wills see that this will not be economically and technically a good solution for you.
Yes now you are happy to see sats flowing straight into a wallet of yours, but that doesn't mean later you will not change your perspective.
If you just use another custodial wallet as external, you also didn't change too much "self-custody"... you just also throw the dead cat body to another custodian. So there's no big deal with that.
You will see soon that I am right.

If you can use a custodial wallet as an external wallet, you won't have to pay too many fees. Once you have accumulated a reasonable number of sats, you can transfer them to a self-custodial wallet. It's the same as before: you had a custody wallet inside SN, now you have one outside SN. This way we don't put SN owners in unnecessary danger.
But they are too scared pussies about being "money transmission machine" and they decided to throw the dead cat into your hands.
I think they are right to be afraid. Why should we expose them to the risk of being accused of being "money transmission machine"?

I'm afraid that this time you won't be right.
