In my opinion the spec has problems that I shared in my comments in the GitHub issue.
It adds Nostr specific complexity to the universal LNURL protocol which will make it harder for LNURL providers to implement.
I would have hoped we build on existing interoperable protocols (like LNURL) and not need to invent a new Nostr specific one (which also only works in Nostr). This now means all tools and service providers need to support Nostr to make this possible - this will take time (it took LNURL years to get to the current adoption)
To me interoperable, reusable protocols are key.
And don't forget payments on Nostr are possible. You can tip/zap any lightning address. Only the payment proof (the zap) will not be published on Nostr.
But ultimately adoption and demand will matter. We need to make Nostr big to convince everybody. :)
Alby is for sure committed to support this as much as possible.
