What other choices do I have? If you're not ready to run a LN node just yet, you can also choose to go for one of the self-custodial wallets listed that act as a LN node on your mobile
Why choose self-custodial? When you're looking to learn more and/or if you plan to send/receive more substantial amounts of sats (e.g. for business) then you're ultimately going to want to learn to run a self-hosted node, preferably through Tor
It is advised to have your sats divided on more than one custodial wallet in case one of the hosted LN nodes temporarily goes down and you still want to transact at that moment.
Why choose custodial? It is only a temp. solution showing the power of LN where channels are already established and robust
