"spark is not permissionless"
It's incrementally better than their previous Strike wallet, which was KYC, and they held your keys.
Do you think nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7c...
I'm not sure that we ever get self managed lightning's permissionlessness and privacy while simultaneously the ease of Spark.
We will likely iterate easier a bit, though in fairness the ease is already getting pretty easy compared to where it was even a year ago to handle your own channels with thing's like Zeus or Blixt having integrated nodes right on a phone. Tools for making selecting channels to open would help, and I think Zeus would benefit from replacing its use of Cashu with Spark for the LN address functionality (I for one have had stuck zaps...). But if you want always on zappability AND full sovereignty you need an always on node.
I'm happy to zap whoever proves me wrong there of course.
