So I just received a zap from Moritz. Then I tried to use the "Send" function in my Alby dashboard. Tried to send 42 sats and it says "insufficient funds". I have 121 sats in my Alby wallet right now.

What's your current balance and does the Alby Hub node page say something about the channel reserve in that channels list?
channel looks like this, current balance is 1,205 sats. Just tried to zap you, still doesn't work. 
nostr:npub1xv8mzscll8vvy5rsdw7dcqtd2j268a6yupr6gzqh86f2ulhy9kkqmclk3x ohh now I see "0 sats" for spending in that channel. Is this because I need to fill up the reserve, first?
yes, sadly that's the issue I think. Olympus there requires that reserve.
Balances in lightning are still hard to get right. Drop some more sats and then try again.
Thanks for the help! Maybe the error message in Alby could be more helpful? "Insufficient Balance" is of course right, but if the wallet can detect that it's actually insufficient reserves, it could have pointed me towards the proper solution right away.
time to try out the SEPA transfer in Alby and load up some corn... :)
yeah, let me know how your experience with that is anything we should improve
Awesome! SEPA transfer is still pending, but I found 500k sats lying around in an ages old Bluewallet, moved them into Zeus, opened another channel and now I am able to zap in Damus.
This is the moment where Lightning has clicked for me.
