Most self custodial ones require an initial on chain deposit to get a channel open. That’s the only proper way to do a Lightning wallet outside of running your own Lightning node.

Oh I meant sending the little I will have left after I spend the bulk to alby or like the fountain app or some shit. One that already exists in other words

I would like to have a large channel that is self custodial. If you’re just sending to a custodial wallet, that’s easy.

Yea I have no intention of setting up another self custody right now. This is my second Im getting fucked on since end of last year and im done wasting money I dont have for now

Going to try out Zeus.

Once I do get around to it, Im considering that or mutiny. Mutiny seems more straightforward for my knowledge base but one of the two. But that gotta wait. Farthest thing from a big baller so the setup fees are prohibitive for me at the moment

Basically I intend to have so little left that I couldnt do an on-chain and really not worried about losing if need be.

Yeah, that works too. I figured for $6, I’d rather just be done, closed, and move on.

Ok cool. I just wasnt sure if there was something I was missing in that they made no suggestion of sending to another. Im talking about maybe a couple thousand sats most after my purchase so not worried about that in alby.
