If you are opening a channel with 20k sats then you will have 20k sats available to spend in the channel. There are other options some wallets provide to buy a channel with inbound liquidity in which you will trade the sats for the inbound liquidity. In that case you will be able to receive right away but not spend. I’m not sure which you are being prompted to do.
Won’t let me send or receive without a 0-conf channel? Saying the lsp will provide 0-conf channels so I can pay and receive. The lsp will also wrap my invoices

You can pay sats from Olympus to open a channel with you with inbound liquidity or you can choose any peer and open a channel with them and all it costs you is the fees of an on chain transaction.

Heres a good guide on Zeus. https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/getting-started-zeus-mobile
Maybe a good spider to study the basics of the lightning network like peers, channels, and inbound and outbound liquidity first.
