POV: you’re a non-technical person and create your first nostr account.

Your client tells you it does encrypted private messages so you send some DMs assuming they are actually private. Turns out you find a bot that posts all the metadata about your DMs. Maybe you also leak your nsec by accident and now the content of your DMs is public. You probably never use nostr apps again and tell your friends not to as well.

Hopefully DMs get some work. They are too much of an afterthought.

I agree we need a better solution. My concern is that because NIP-04 “works” as is, there is not a big effort to deprecate it.
