Okay if custody of your own coins is priority for you, and you don't want to run a node straight away, I guess my recommendation is Zap Desktop. You can also get it from its github page. Basically it's running an lnd node in the background, but it presents a nice GUI as a front end.
I've been out a couple of years, anyone was here?

There are various wallets for the desktop, but I never used one. I think Electrum has Lightning intergration, there is also Zap (https://github.com/LN-Zap/zap-desktop) I use a https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz with Zap mobile wallet connecting to the node for payments (there is an app and desktop version).
money stuck in Zap?

I would recommend opening an issue in their GitHub repository https://github.com/LN-Zap/zap-desktop/issues.

Zap (version 3030): Bitcoin Lightning Wallet
Was at a party where they had a Bitcoin enabled beer tab (price was super low on purpose)
2 projects | /r/CryptoCurrency | 8 Aug 2021

This is the Zap wallet. It connects over Tor to my Raspiblitz at home, which is basically my own little bank :-) . To pay you scan a QR code on the display of the beer tab. The payment process over the Bitcoin Lightning Network is settled within seconds and then you get the beer.

What are some alternatives?
