> you shouldn’t even try sending transactions valued more than a few hundred dollars

this is true about all of the alternatives too, Lightning is just the only one honest about it. And as someone who's been using lightning to pay my phone bills, I can say it works ok.

You don't see the problem with a payment system that is fundamentally unreliable?

Why would you pay your phone bills with lightning? I don't know which country you live in, but where I lived there are so many easier methods to pay your phone bills.

@Alphane_Moon You are the one saying it's unreliable but also you are not using it. Here is someone using it and saying it is reliable ok. Go figure.

Why would I use a payment system that developers themselves call unreliable? Are you serious?

I am not even talking about overall usability (i.e. recipient support) and UX/UI...
