I want to invest, I have a wallet, I wish to the put $500 into it. How many hands do I have to feed to accomplish this? And who/what can be trusted with this transaction?
Why not use testnet first? Blixt has a cool web demo https://blixtwallet.github.io/ You got an android testnet package for blixt too https://github.com/hsjoberg/blixt-wallet/releases/tag/v0.6.7

Why Not Use Testnet Before You Buy?
There is also a testnet release for blixt on the github: https://github.com/hsjoberg/blixt-wallet/releases Blixt is of course a lightning wallet. So if you wanted to play with that without using real coins this is how you would do it.
- Can't export channel back up in Blixt wallet
- "If this is not addressed soon Lightning will be spammed into oblivion."
- Best open-source non-custodial wallet that supports the lightning network?

Some great lightning wallets you can use
I don't think it's well known in blogs and non-dev people, but the github repo is pretty popular. It's open source, so you can have a look at the code. It has a lot of state-of-the-art features.

Escaping Surveillance Capitalism, at Scale
I really thought this article was going to offer a solution, not just enumerate the problems. I'm already all too familiar with the problems.
I like what Umbrel[0] is doing. They're essentially expecting that just like computing was able to move from centralized mainframes to homes, servers are poised to make the same migration.
I think they really need to solve redundancy, though. If I'm to self-host anything important on a home server, I need to know I'll have some way to use it even if my home server fails, especially if I'm not at home when it happens.
I'd love to see some kind of system where I could partner up with other Umbrel users for backups/the ability to restore connectivity. If I knew that in an emergency, I could call my friend in town or my brother out of state and there was some procedure that would allow me to connect to an encrypted backup of what I'm needing, I would feel a lot better about taking responsibility for my own system.
