With the growth of private inbox relays (relays that require auth to query messages to a user), Push Notification systems will have to AUTH on behalf of the user to download new messages and push them to the app.

NIP-63 proposes a new event kind to allow users to give authority to a server's key to download (but not decrypt) your DMs. In that way, you don't need to give your private key to a Push Notification server.

This was just our first idea. Comments are welcome.

Speaking of dms over nostr, we need more cross app groupchats! I've noticed that damus users can't join in on the Amethyst groupchats.

Some interoperability between Amethyst groupchats and 0xchat would be a great step, to cross platfrom message groups
