No difference. The LITE wallet uses --daemon-address geo.ryoblocks.com which I set up to pick the closest official node to you. See nodes.ryoblocks.com for a list of geographic ones.
Many thanks for confirming and for bringing ryoblocks.com to my attention!
I saw the URL one of these last days in twitter, but as it appeared a WIP I dind't check what was offered, nice to have official remote nodes
