Something I’ve noticed since I lost Phoenix wallet, is that our ability to communicate or “partner” between projects is kinda horrible.
Example: One of the best ways to get new users sats without any onboarding friction have been services like Fountain and Zebeedee. Yet literally none of the wallets will read or accept a withdraw from those services. Phoenix was the only one that would just do it.
Then the same problem with Cash App, which is easily a dominant service for buying and using #Bitcoin and now #Lightning. Yet none of my wallets will let me enter in an amount if the invoice is for zero sats… which all Cash App invoices are blank.
I thought these would just be growing pains about a year or 2 ago, but neither have changed at all in that time span. Are the wallet builders just not using their own wallets?
(I’ve had a super shitty day so if this is overly critical I apologize, but for lightning to also be a pain in my ass today is just icing on the cake. I’ve tried 5 different wallets and 2 different UI for btcpay trying to get a simple withdraw from Fountain to work)
You ever have one of those days where every fucking time you start to make a little progress, something breaks and sets you back to an hour back to before you even got started?
I’ve been there at least 3 times today. And now the construction guys just cut the fucking internet. The show is going to be down for a few days just because I don’t think I have the energy for anything anymore. If another device breaks down on me inexplicably I might just put every electronic device into a pile in the backyard and set it on fire.
Hope someone else out there is having a good day
