A full node allows you to do shit you can't do with a regular phone wallet.
Look at getting #Umbrel which is a complete package of a node and tons of extra add-on shit.

Well yea. I have a node 😅 but I don’t know if I’m able to use a lightning node just for zapping people and receiving zaps
Are you asking if you should have a second node to do zaps? Then, no, don't.
Install #lnbits on your node and you'll be able to create sandboxed wallets on your node. You can have a sub-wallet on your nose just for zaps. And then, you can add a second wallet you can use for #Cashu. That's what I do. I even have another wallet setup for selling stuff using #btcpayserver.
No haha I know I can install a lightning node on the node I have. But I don’t know how to work it all out with incoming and outgoing liquidity
But I still have to learn about lightning as a whole. I just wondered if it was somehow possible to route all zaps on nostr “incoming and outgoing” through my own node. I don’t know how to explain better than this 😅
