Yea, this is the most infuriating part. Using LN non-custodially is not very difficult or expensive. But very few Bitcoiners are even trying to do so it seems.
Lots of positive talk around ossification and how LN is full of problems and is broke.... while at the same time, they use their debit/credit cards and simp to the Cantillionaires without a care.

I'm a Bitcoiner. I traveled to another continent to prove to myself that Lightning worked. That it was possible to use one's own node and make transactions, even over TOR to buy daily goods (coffee, pizza, the hotel room etc...)
And you know what? It worked fabulously and I am not a technical/command line user unlike many of the ubernerds on here.
If I can do it what are other people waiting for. Lugano is fabulous

I am not innocent here, I never even had the goal of custodial LN until I stood up my Raspiblitz.
Lightning was an afterthought, but an incredibly welcomed addition. If normies are anything like me, and I suspect they are, only those keen to control their transactions end-to-end will find their way.

Do you think these will ever run their own LN node?
or this one?

😔 No, Lord Coin.
