Redesigning transaction list for @Alby and I have a question for you. Does it make sense to differentiate zaps visually from other lightning payments (that also can have a message)? My Nostr nerd side wants it, but my UX intuition say we shouldn’t do it. In a way it's just a "backend" for a payment with a message and I feel it adds unnecessary complication to transaction lists (looks dope though) https://m.primal.net/HLPD.png #nostrdesign
Looks great!

Zaps shouldn’t be visually different, they are fine in the green, color separation in this case only for inbound and outbound visual que’s. Is my ✌️ cents on it
I personally see zaps as micro payments like Twitch Bits and stuff. So, I would make them appear different from one another. o.o
No, highlited zaps looks fun, but true UX balance for the list of transactions is in two colors - for incoming and outgoing.
The purple color for zaps doesn't make sense in this case. You could maybe add ⚡️next to the Zap, but even that's probably just adding clutter.
I think @Wallet of Satoshi just puts the word “Zap” in the beginning of the memo field. Maybe a tiny ⚡️ icon would be nice to add somewhere. But I wouldn’t change the color from green to purple. That’s a UX faux pas.
One slightly left-field suggestion... Change the up/down icons to something that communicates the category of payment. A zap, or a podcast payment, or a purchase, etc. You're already communicating whether it's an increase or decrease with the colour of the sats amount on the right hand side, so you don't need additional cues on the left. You could add a visual cue with a subtle background colour to that entry as well. My (fancy online) bank does something similar.
