Yes, I indeed missed that discussion. Nonetheless, that email confirms LN’s security process ( not design) needs tweaks—like every protocol. Antoine’s “halt” is temporary, per his focus on Bitcoin Core. Your “flawed system” claim ignores $2B monthly volume and 99.8% uptime (LNBIG). On-chain scaling at 7 TPS? Fork required (which you oppose). Just run a node.
He's a 3rd world campaign shitposter spewing lies, when he never contributed anything in his life to Bitcoin. Just ignore him. I tagged him already for his malicious lies regarding LN.

CEX UX is jail. Lightning apps like Muun or Phoenix beat any exchange’s "simplicity" for payments. Try sending coffee money on Coinbase vs. scanning a QR in 2 sec. Merchant adoption is the real wall, not UX.
They indeed work great, much better than any altcoin. I strongly recommend everyone to install wallets like those, it is amazing how far LN has come. If you remember the old stories of failing routes and random errors.
