For somebody that hasn’t been in the bitcoin or lightning ecosystem from day 1, I find the information that I find through Google pretty much indigestible. Like, what do I really need to be able to accept zaps? I know I can use Alby or Wallet of Satoshi, but I want to know how to do it myself.

it´s been months only brother, google still haven´t catch up...just enter on ww.getalby.com , just follow the steps.
So I need to host a Json file on a domain I own, that’s easy enough. The Json file has a callback to a service that generates lighting invoices. OK, that makes sense to me. What service should I host, or how do I implement it myself?
Actually the zaps part is not that hard, but that assumes you already have a way to create invoices.
getalby does both for you- nip05 and zaps, but if you want to do it yourself and non custodial it has to be with btcpayserver....i think it´s complicating too much...
Yeah that’s similar. NIP-5 doesn’t require anything other than a static JSON. Zaps require an LN service.
Yeah that’s my impression too. 😔
