It means you are using the wrong software.
it always amazes me how embarrassingly low is the level of bitcoin knowledge in our meetup, and then i remember that the education meetup topics still focus on either:
- why bitcoin? or
- how to bitcoin like a pro!
the teacher shud look at himself daily in the mirror and ask himself why does he suck so much. 🔍😅

Amen to that!

In the case of this particular wallet, which I only use for nostr and sn, I'm using electrum for android (mobile as a cold wallet). Do you know of a wallet for android that allows you to manage utxo's individually?
reply
Electrum for android also have coin control. Only that is not so intuitive like on desktop. You will have to go and select each output from previous transactions and freeze some.
You can use the same seed on a desktop Electrum and do the coin control from there, or using Sparrow.
Bluewallet for mobile also can handle that seed and have decent coin control.
For mobile you have also Green, Nunchuck, Keeper with good coin control.
Practically if you do not touch LN with those UTXOs, you can import the seed in any other wallet app and manage it from there, consolidating, organizing, coin control etc.
Sparrow is the best for that.

I've seen this button there (freeze) but I've never actually looked at what it does. I think it's time I checked it out.
edit: cc/ @DarthCoinWhat does it mean to “freeze” an address in Electrum?
When you freeze an address, the funds in that address will not be used for sending bitcoins. You cannot send bitcoins if you don’t have enough funds in the non-frozen addresses.
This option is not fit for purpose. It actually does what I thought it did!
reply
the easy way: just import the seed into a desktop app and take it from there.
reply
I think I see what you mean. I can freeze the utxo's I don't want to send and then send the others.
