Phoenix is pretty nice. Been using it on the side for a couple years now. They also recently added a new kind of lightning address powered by bolt-12 invoices, but they warn that it might not work with all wallets to be able to send to it.
The major reasons I can't recommend it as a daily driver for newbies at present are 1. No way to connect it to Nostr apps for one-tap-zapping, 2. No way to reliably receive zaps to their new lightning address spec, 3. Even though they lanage your lightning channel for you, you have to know a thing or two about how liquidity works to avoid surprise on-chain fees when you run out of inbound.
