i just use native right now and use electrum to transfer thanks tho
Blockchain.com is a buggy wallet. So it's best to avoid it even if it supports bc1 addresses.
Since you have successfully withdrawn and you did it through electrum, you have taken the right step.
If you have more money in Blockchain.com's wallet & you want to save some fees "move your pvt keys (wallet seed) from it to electrum) and start using electrum with hardware wallet(ledger nano S)

I agree to this, blockchain wallet reputation is not top of the line since then, its been hacked so many times, and it is so skeptical to use it, so I've switched to Electrum, which is more flexible than any other wallet I've used, that support segwit and non segwit bitcoin address. Electrum is an awesome wallet to those bitcoin holders out there.

Im setting up my ledger nano S created a native segwit over  segwit since it gave me 2 options I have my money on blockchain app and getting a
( Invalid BTC address ) ?

was i suppose to make a normal segwit address? it gave me the option to use both some how on ledger live app. what do i do i heard native is better anyways?

I hope you can also post the address if not the whole just the first four digits. That will enable us to identify if what you made is a segwit address or not. By looking at the addresses we can determine if it is a default segwit wallet, compatibility segwit wallet or a legacy wallet. If you are using the default wallet then it starts with bc1 and is not compatible with other wallets. So if you are using a segwit wallet I suggest you use addresses that starts with 3.

should I keep the native segwit wallet?

edit - what is a good standard wallet i should use to send to my ledger

You can use segwit compatible (which starts with 3). You will be already saving in fees, and it is compatible with every wallet.
You will save more in fees using native segwit (bc1), but there are some incompatibilities.
In your case, as a newbie, I would recommend using compatible segwit. Easier .

Blockchain wallet does not support segwit address which starts with bc1.
You can transfer the money to a standard wallet first then you can transfer them to the segwit wallet.
