Onchain fees are affecting the usefulness of these wallets right now. Telling a new user they have to pay 40k sats/$15 just to have the privilege to spend on lightning is terrible UX. I currently use or have previously used all the wallets above and I am hoping they can continue to innovate to improve the UX or else lightning is doomed to cucked custodians.

This is really where Lightning non-custodial really fails. Regardless of how much improvements are done to the UX, this will remain an issue. I heard solutions like using one channel for multiple users, I wonder if my understanding is correct, but that could be a trade off some willing to make. I doubt this will be the future. We will have to wait and see.

LN has more in common with banks than it does Bitcoin.
