How are people growing LN adoption anyway?
They educate each other. I myself had no idea how it works, but after couple of reads, I knew. You can lure people in the idea that the transactions are almost free and instant.

The lnbook helped me a lot to understand far from basics about the LN and it's updated every week. It's not the subject of late in the wider crypto community, because you can't speculate anything and usually, the majority of the crypto newcomers want to make money.

Exchanges (the preferred "wallet" by the majority of users) aren't promoting this tech either.

No need to write anything. I'll just quote the message;

and there’s almost no high volume Bitcoin services/exchanges that accept it.
Here I think you're wrong, if nothing changed in the last weeks then we have the following popular exchanges accepting LN:

- Bitfinex (see here)
- OkEx
- Bitnovo (leading Spanish exchange)
- FixedFloat - Changelly-like exchange
- HodlHodl - P2P
- Paxful - P2P

OkEx and Paxful have added it in the last months, while Bitfinex accepts it since 2019 or 2020. There are a lot of other smaller exchanges and services, see this list (in Spanish) and this website. Kraken seems to be in process of adopting it, although I'm not up to date about the current progress.
