Well I can't find the post, but I spoke with a user months ago about how they sent like a very large amount of money over LN and regretted it due to the fees, and when I asked why they didn't just use on-chain for a transaction that large, they just said that they didn't know.
Is there a way to warn the user about what the fee for their send is about to be to then recommend the use of on-chain (based on going on-chain fee rates)? Just a little "Are you sure" pop up in some way? I do believe that would be a quality of life improvement for some users.

Yes we are planning something like this. We already have a somewhat similar screen for unified invoices.

My situation too, but I was following the mempool and onchain transaction was slightly cheaper than Phoenix. I ended up paying 20-30 sats on embedded Zeus node (10-20x cheaper than Zeus)
