I have $20 of btc in lightning network, but I don't know how to transfer them to a general wallet, such as Trust wallet

general wallet/on-chain wallet is what you mean
You can do a swap and use your new on-chain address as the receiving address.

- In LN you don't have $ (fiat money), you have sats. Start thinking like that and apart from "fiat thinking". So just say, "I have some sats in LN", it really doesn't matter how much worth in fiat those sats.
- Trust wallet... is not really a trusted wallet, actually is quite garbage wallet. ANY multicoin wallet is a total garbage and you should STAY away.
- Here you have a comparison guide of Bitcoin wallets.
- Here you have a guide how to get started with LN
- Here you have a guide about submarine swaps
- Here you have a guide about how to hodl your BTC safely on 3 levels of stashing
- You will need to use a swap service (Boltz, Robosats, FixedFloat, Deezy, Amboss etc), or a LN wallet with integrated swaps (Electrum, Phoenix, Muun, LNTXBOT, WoS) - see the guide about LN wallets

Trust wallet is rubbish, use a better one, please.
BlueWallet or Blockstream Green are excellent mobile Bitcoin wallets.
What wallet do you have the bitcoin in? I'm guessing a custodial wallet, since you can't move the sats on-chain.
Just install Muun wallet, it's non custodial and once received, you'll be able to send the sats over both, the LN or on-chain.
There's a fee to open the channel but I believe, it's cheaper than any swapping services.
All three wallets I've mentioned are non-custodial (except the LN part of BlueWallet, unless you connect ti to own LN node). This means, you're in the charge at all time. It also means you're responsible for the keys, create backups of backups to make sure you always have an access to your money.

If you want it simple, just use muun: send your sats via lightning to your muun wallet. Then send your sats from muun to your final wallet via on chain
