Alby Go is a great Lightning wallet for those who run their own nodes. It connects to your node via NWC, and acts as a front-end, handling all your send and receive transactions. It's incredibly simple to use with just your balance shown on the screen, abd two large buttons to send and receive. There's another little button to pull up your transaction log, and that's pretty much it. If you run your own Lightning node, Alby Go is a must-have companion.

It has potential, but still a lot to do. The hub part of Alby is nightmare come true launch by yourself, it's well documented -by my own opinion meh-, but nothing easy come with self-hosting on lighting, you have two choices if you do not want to have an IT headache keeping your channels and node up, pay. It's about fees, or left the deployment to other, close to own fully hosted will be those services like Ocean that allow you to launch one-click nodes. Those opting for services like Zeus, Electrum will be depend of remote hosted nodes and pretty much submarine swaps fee or third party services to balance the spend/receive capacity. Yes, lighting is fast, in exchange for a lot of trust on anonymous third party, fees to keep your BTC on lighting nodes, and fees to return those BTC to main, so you indeed can pay a coffee with BTC, but I won't trust keeping more than a few milis BTC on this system, it's far from be the only way *cough cough XRP.. . XMR... cough cough*. Still nothing intricately wrong with Alby, so far so good.
