LN still works pretty great for me.
Sure there are bugs and you have to learn how to use it, but wallets like mutiny and phoenix and Zeus make it pretty easy.
Sure, there are still things to be addressed and improved. It makes me question the intention of the person who wrote the article. If you notice, they don't identify the author.

This whole thing smells like shitcoin's FUD about Bitcoin LN.
I think you have to keep in mind that what is possible on Lightning makes hundreds of shitcoin obsolete. Therefore, it is in the best interest of shitcoin holders to spread disinformation like this to make uninformed people believe that LN is some kind of a flop.

Are you familiar with Protos? I follow them on X/Twitter but I can't remember why I started to. They regularly run what I suppose could be seen as 'objective' articles about crypto, including Bitcoin, but sometimes I get the impression they are anti-crypto, including Bitcoin. Anyway I have come to take just about everything they put out with a large grain of salt. Always good to hear dissenting views, provided they are intellectually honest. I don't think I can say that with confidence for most of what I've read from them.

Never heard of protos before.
