Cashapp and Strike are two of the best places in the US to buy Bitcoin, and you can send them from both directly to your Primal wallet. Definitely cheaper to buy them that way than directly in the Primal app.
As for self-custody, think of Primal and other custodial wallet apps as a bank account. It’s your money but ultimately they have control over it. Withdrawing to self custody means you hold the keys to those sats. I suggest starting with Aqua Wallet on your phone. It’s self-custodial, meaning you hold the keys locally on your device. It supports lightning and on-chain bitcoin, and easily allows you to swap between the two.
Once you have a sizeable amount of bitcoin (like a few million sats or more) start thinking about an offline wallet, also called cold storage. Bitkey, Coldcard, and Blockstream Jade are all good cold storage wallets.
