 When i try to decode that in cln i get:

Offer does not contain a description, invalid token 
 Hmm. Can you try again ? 
 I could try a million times its not going to change the string lol 
 Ahhhh I misunderstood 
 same here  
 Not interoperable with the CLN yet 
 ahh so just works phoenix to phoenix rn?   
 i think there is a proper name for the acinq java based lightning node... phoenix is just the mobile deployment of their LSP, i forget ... lemme dig up the github

https://github.com/acinq

yes, their full lightning node is called eclair

so you can run an eclair lightning node and use this feature connected to other eclair nodes 
 but yes, if only phoenix does bolt12 rn then only phoenix

but if other clients have bolt12 it should be interop 
 Cln has an outdated version 
 :/ 
 i guess then hopefully once cln catches up, will work then. 
 Bullish 
 thats surprising lol 
 Yep, spec changed recently, but the change isn't in CLN yet.

Embarrassing, but the arguments for the change were quite compelling*. And it's the reason the final spec has not been merged.

*It also happens to reduce the size of the minimal BOLT12 tattoo! Why? Um, no reason...
