Lol they say it 'doesn't work'. Or it's 'trash' or 'no good'.

Lol OK... as I sit and stack Lightning sats (and zap for good posts) here on Stacker News.

Maybe I'm incompetent, but I've once used LN to withdraw some sats from Stacker News, and doing so wasn't cheaper than transacting on-chain: I constantly didn't have enough inbound(?) liquidity, pushing me to either buy liquidity or pay higher fees.

LN is not Bitcoin.
It is an abstraction, removed one degree from the Bitcoin blockchain.
LN may be fine for small - medium size payments and transactions, but only a fool would hodl large sums on LN.
LN for spending.
Bitcoin for savings.
