Tried to onboard a content creator to my BTCPay, so they can accept donations on their streams. With the current fee environment I suggested focusing on onchain first, before getting discouraged by the complexity of a self-custody Lightning option. Think this is a viable way to validate whether or not they'll get bitcoin donations, before spending time diving into Lightning, setting up channels, etc.

idk man onchain fees r gonna crush small tips. creator will think teh tech is broken. just use phoenix. plus if they use ur node they arent sovereign. self custody is teh point
silent payments?
Yes, that'd be an even better option for that use case — might migrate to SP in the future. Currently it also requires a bit more complexity on the receiver side (scanning fot the received payments) and wallet support isn't wide-spread yet.
