I primarily use Breez for self custodial lightning. I can give you a more detailed answer as to why if you want, but after trying multiple of the node in phone wallets it has just worked best for what I need, and I’ve been using it for like 3 years now witch minimal issues. I’ve also been trying out Aqua and I’m liking it. The thing to keep in mind about Aqua is that it stores your “layer 2” balance as Liquid. So it can make and receive Lightning payments, but it automatically swaps them in and out of liquid behind the scenes. Seems to work ok, but it’s good to know that and it does result in a little bit higher LN due to the swaps.
