Yeah that's a fair point. That's why wos left the USA, too big of a target on their back.

I think there is a solution to be had, though I don't know what it is. I hear CLN is much more reliable than LND. Could be something there. In any case, we are (relatively speaking) early days still and I do think L2 solutions are important for bitcoin to scale.

For any solution stack, the base layer should be simple and relatively dumb. The intricate solutions happen on subsequent layers adding use-case specific functionality.

I do agree there's a lot of reliability problems with the current lightning layer. Part of that could stem from so many plebs running unreliable nodes on raspi. But I also think we can't give up on developing and testing (nor get complacent with what we have). Like I said, I think a proper L2 solution is crucial.
