Consider using Blixt wallet as your LN wallet replacement. Non-custodiall, non "vendor lock in" for channels (aka routing fees) like Breez and Phoenix, no channel setup fees other than the actual on chain fees and as easy as Phoenix and Breez. Android and iOS compatible. https://blixtwallet.github.io/

Heard good things about Blixt. Currently running my own node via Zeus and Phoenix wallet as a secondary wallet. Are there any downsides to Blixt when compared to Phoenix?
Never used Phoenix myself due to my aversion of AQUIN. 🤔 Reckless satoshi (dev of Robosats) used Blixt for most of Robosats testing and development and from my point of view Blixt is super easy and robust, except for the need of Google account for channeldb backup and no self hosted option like Nextcloud in Breeze. But manual channeldb is possible with Blixt. Maybe someone should code and PR to fix this flaw (https://github.com/hsjoberg/blixt-wallet/issues/366)? 🧡 Herewith, I set out a bounty of 20k for the PR which merges, since I just paid out my previous 23k bounty about robosats ( #[3] ) thanks to #[6] .
I published the Blixt wallet bounty in note #[4]

There's no vendor lock in in Breez, you can open channels from other nodes
Hi #[5] : yes you're right and I knew it. But its a bit clumsy compared to the Blixt UI. I was oversimplifying. However Breez has it's use cases where hiding complexity is a good thing and the podcast sat streaming is a nice thing as well as POS is. But podcasts don't work in Breez when using a Tor connection.
