You mean occasional outages as issues?
Doesn't bother me- rather that than the totally impractical nature of most other much more complex to use LN wallets and their much higher fees.
For a beginner Coinos has to be the best available.
Most people do not want to spend hours and hours maintaining their own nodes and wallets.
Coinos is the GOAT.

About a year ago Coinos had a lot of their sats stolen. There was a whole thing going on then which was quite annoying to deal with

Did anyone actually lose their funds?
I know I didn't even though there have been several temporary pauses in service.
I have used Coinos for several years and never lost any funds.
Coinos is more practicable and reliable and much lower maintenance than all these fancy virtue signalling self custody LN wallets that have extortionate fees and very limited actual capacity.
Coinos enables me to use sats on Stacker News while many even tech experts give up trying to use self custodial wallet here because of the unreliability and cost.
Coinos is the goat for newbies and those wanting a simple unpretentious easy to use LN wallet.
