A Pleb is short for Plebeian. Just a regular person like me

Lightning is a separate part of Bitcoin that needs a Lightning wallet. It can create invoices. Zaps are lightning payments with an open amount. Only some wallets can do this

Exodus is Bitcoin on-chain. You can create an invoice the same way. But the fees are higher and are usually for large amounts.

let me know if you have any more questions

Thank you so much! I am using Alby here for zaps...is that considered a lightning wallet?

And, how do you define a "large amount"?

Thank you for taking the time to answer.

Yes Alby is Lightning compatible. Are you able to Zap someone

Large amount is up to you but the way I judge it is how much is the fee. So when you send someone BTC in Exodus it will show you a network fee. Sometimes its to high for the amount transfered.

So if I wanted to sell something for a small amount, invoicing through lightning makes more sense for both parties (yes?). Could I do that for example through Alby?

Yes the fees would be cheaper. And yes I believe Alby can do it
