Lightning wallet recommendations please
OBW offers great flexibility and in case you need it, it also has a hosted channels option (custodial). Don't put a lot of sats into the custodial option

OBW might be the best option for what you're asking. It offers great flexibility and in case you need it, it also has a hosted channels option (custodial)

Lost funds moving from SBW to OBW
Apparently it's a fork of SBW https://github.com/nbd-wtf/obw

420 000 000 sats
Another option is in a hosted channel on OBW (https://github.com/nbd-wtf/obw) One thing that's nice about OBW is that it will also do fully non-custodial channels that you decide on and open when you want to get to that point at some time in the future. OBW also does on-chain transactions.

Muun is not a lightning wallet.
OBW is great if you like to manage channels yourself: https://github.com/nbd-wtf/obw

I used the lightning network for the first time. Iām sold.
Open Bitcoin Wallet is great (https://github.com/nbd-wtf/obw), you can use hosted channels immediately (which are a custodial solution to receive lightning right away), and you can open your own channels to any node you wish when you want to move to non-custodial.

F21 A guy wants to tip me in bitcoin.... Idk where to start š
If any less, then I would recommend Phoenix Wallet (https://phoenix.acinq.co/) since spending that tip will be cheaper for you.

Is the only way to achieve non-custodial lightning wallet, letting user connect to his own lnd?
That comment is incorrect too from a few angles. Both Breez and Phoenix's code is entirely verifiable on their GitHubs (Pheonix Breez). If you're truly concerned about them changing the code in an update you can verify and build the app yourself locally and install it on your phone.
