"look everyone is using custodial lightning so we should embrace that" makes me feel sick. I always thought this was a temporary measure until we had better wallets, TIL the plan now is to embrace it fully for mass onboarding.
We're working with a few partners to try an alternative approach. If it fails then it fails, but at least I can sleep at night knowing we tried.
Mass onboarding into custody seems like a disaster without a really good non-custodial offboarding plan.
