Thanks. To be fair: The reason the LightSpark's API (as used by Primal, WoS, others) is sometimes quite slow and unstable is because LightSpark has to deal with all the complexity of Lightning... ON TOP of all the complexity of their proprietary API/platform.
So when you have a problem with LightSpark, it could be Lightning, it could be their platoform, or it could be the interaction between Lightning and their platform. ;)
Rizful is more reliable and much lower latency because we're 100% focused on Lightning and haven't attempted to build an enormous sand castle on top of Lightning.... and also because we run one the biggest routing nodes on the network, so we can be laser-focused on Lightning relability.
That said, LightSpark is doing what they are doing for fairly good reasons -- and it might be worthwhile for some users to put up with the problems in return for what LightSpark is offering.....
