I have been seeing #Sparrow wallet mentioned a lot for use in recovery and for ordinary users to download so they can move coins to a hot wallet, etc.
First of all, let me say this is my favorite Bitcoin wallet.
But it's actually very similar to the Coldcard in that it is an extremely complex piece of software. When you're making your wallet, you can choose derivation paths, for example.
Sparrow really is for the passionate and the power users.
Perhaps someone else knows a easier to use wallet that runs on Windows and Mac.
Something like Blue Wallet may be good for a temporary hot wallet. @bluewallet
