Do you pay fee for sending out Airdrop or the coins automatic in the wallets?

I don't want to make a coins. Was just thinking if forks pay +100k * fee

It's an automatic procedure for Bitcoin, ETH or anything else, they will show up there after the fork without the need of sending anything. As for the airdrops, they must send them so a transaction and fee is required.

Wild. So some people pay millions to create a fork?

No, you don't need anything for a fork, but for airdrops, yes.
