But non-custodial zapping feels like a low hanging-fruit... right?

Yes, I'm working on that currently

How are you implementing this?

With Bitcoin Connect from @Alby, see here.

Bitcoin Connect uses WebLN under the hood. It provides us a nice interface to connect with various wallets, including self-custodial ones.

Does this answer your question? :)

That makes sense. Are you depositing into the Stacker News account of the receiver or allowing a separate LN address or something similar to retrieve a BOLT11 (bolt12 optimal here tbh)? If we go non-custodial we should make it non-custodial E2E

I am working only on sending from external wallets since this is the first iteration. @k00b is working on the receiving side (automated withdrawals).

So my code will send sats into the custodial SN account for now. Migrating to a completely non-custodial UX will be done in follow-up PRs.
