I agree. Which I believe is why LND has been able to capture so much of the market share. Developer experience / feedback and docs. LDK is doing pretty well IMO for what it is, it just happens to be that what their target audience is right now is for a niche of lighting experts. CLN has historically dropped the ball on developer experience even if they have some of the most configurable and adaptable software. Their plugin system can be really nice. But FFS they didn't get an HTTP API until this year and I still don't even know where it's at or how to use it.
It really shows the difference in building products and platforms vs building FOSS in a decentralized way. There's pros and cons on both sides but its night and day the difference in consumer experience.
