Polling is an antipattern in most cases, it increases latency for clients and server load. When e.g. building a PoS using LUD21 one has to poll at least every second to achieve reasonably low latency. Long-polling fixes this.

Polling is an antipattern in most cases, it increases latency for clients and server load, yet it's the only way to use LNURL verify aka LUD21 right now. When e.g. building a PoS using LUD21 one has to poll at least every second to achieve reasonably low latency.
