The non-technical side of the community can help with their support. The wallet providers and exchanges will only make decisions to implement new technologies, if there is a huge demand for it. You can write emails to these third party services to ask for these technologies. When there are enough people doing this, they would not have a choice in the matter, they have to go with the demand or they will lose market share in a highly competitive market.
Leave the technical side for the experts and concentrate on the things that you can change.
Thanks, that's exactly what I was asking about.
Thanks for the good read. It's definitely going to be a new era for bitcoin if Lightning Network is as perfect as described in this article. I hope it's adoption won't take so long when it's out of beta, which I know will.
