Like i said Nostr is bad for privacy. Private coms should be made over other platforms like SIGNAL. Nostr is to speak your mind freely without shadow banning or algos or censorship, this on the social side, there are other applications that are not social. DMs privacy probably can be made better, there is already a nip for that for some time now but i haven't tried it yet, don't know what clients implement it. Again, privacy here is bad.
In my case I have been telling everyone not to DM me on here but people keep doing that! Also, earlier in days when nostr:npub1wp4wzdvn25ckqxd6v6y46axpdx25hywu2mduhr5r9a5vzq5g7keq332ynk was alive we have been chatting here about the life, nostr, bitcoin and life in El Salvador! Now think about the fact that my DMs metadata are leaked and tight to my IP to everyone on internet I might be dictators target for just chatting with the person he killed! Unfortunately, not too many think in broader ways on here! nostr:note1cnw0k85zmnse40hlym737qgjkdag3qlnw8nwk59sf8dyl7pld6lqg7ulht

I know! Im just stating the fact that newcomers on here have no clue or don’t care ! And the basic stuff like not leaking the above I mentioned should be prioritized and be fixed by default !
If I will speak publicly against dictator and he will not like it most likely I will be found within seconds and killed or put in jail!
Agree that clients could warn users about privacy problems like DMs. IP leaks you will always have, anywhere, most it's on the user side to take care of that, if you open a website they know your ip, so you will always need something like a vpn or similar, or just post to relays that you know that don't log ips. Talking against a dictator in your own country, you will always have to take this and other extra measures for privacy if you are a potential target, the protocol can do little to avoid that.
