Lightning and Monero make sense for tips (and zaps), as they're both relatively private. On-chain Bitcoin zaps just don't really make sense to me, as it's a public ledger, and tipping is fiddly because silent payments aren't in widespread use. Zaps, in general, just don't really make sense to me because I tip too much money to want anyone to keep track of it and people microzapping me should just keep the change.
This is just where I am at right now.
