The fee depends on the lightning wallet you’re paying from, nostr:npub1fa8c9prxnrlkdtjl48adfsxyaduz8tas075l2n4f6903y9awjmxqanthnd

nostr:npub1zzrslsn9engv54jtmlrh6lr0n2zm8vlfp8p6g8xjdj0x9awgehxsts9jem was paying from the one of a kind splicing and self custody Phoenix Wallet by ACINQ⚡️

“Phoenix Wallet uses variable fees for Lightning Network (LN) transactions, charging around 0.4% for sending (including routing). No fee for receiving LN payments”

It would be a lower fee to pay from e.g nostr:npub1hcwcj72tlyk7thtyc8nq763vwrq5p2avnyeyrrlwxrzuvdl7j3usj4h9rq but the privacy would be much worse than nostr:npub1zzrslsn9engv54jtmlrh6lr0n2zm8vlfp8p6g8xjdj0x9awgehxsts9jem's self custody, privacy and splicing choice, Phoenix Wallet⚡️

When the market develops, the costs will fall in time. But it’s still very early days right now.

I remember buying lightning ear rings after spending an entire day trying (pre-pandemic)…and it was a few years after that that I was able to get my unspent funds out of that channel…I was way way way to early to lightning for my skill level.
