I think you meant to say phoenixd (server) not the regular Phoenix mobile app, right?

I haven't even used phoenixd. Whats that like?

The Phoenix mobile app has bolt 12 now. I haven't used it because I moved over to Blixt tho.

And obviously you have to enable the app to run in the background to be able to accept payments at all times.

I am using phoenixd. It’s okay. Easy setup (literally just run a binary and you’re done) and the fees are reasonable. It’s API doesn’t support msats though and it still has some issues staying up.

I would say if you’re willing to run a server but don’t want to manage liquidity, phoenixd is probably your best option rn.

However, since I actually want to manage liquidity and open my own channels for lower fees, I think I’ll move back to LND or something that supports BOLT12.

I onboarded a merchant and he's using it on a tablet. Works perfectly fine, all day.

Does the merchant have persistent mode turned on with an LNURL like I do tho?

reply

Yes, Is running like a normal node.
It shut it down only during the night when he sleep :)

phoenixd is a desktop server daemon that is doing the same as Phoenix mobile app.
Only that you can run it as a funding source for Lnbits, Alby Hub or another client that can't remember the name now.

Is cool and is using low resources. Nodana is offering cloud instances too for phoenixd.

So you are using it with WebLN to send?

Oh yeah...the noncustodial migration is November 5th. I haven't even looked at at all that lmao. I guess zapping people's lnurls is not quite the same as zapping their posts huh? I'll have to actually give it some thought lol.
