Nostr Web Client

I've just published the draft NIP to bring highly secure DM and group messaging to Nostr via the MLS protocol.

I've been studying this space for months now and after looking at a lot of different options, MLS (messaging layer security) stood out as the right way to approach solving DMs and group messages. It's highly scalable, an internet standard, and allows for graceful upgrading over time.

Done right – this NIP allows us to build extremely secure, uncensorable messaging clients that have no centralized coordinators or servers. Which is what I plan to do next. 😉

You lost me at "E2EE" - the false advertising there is basically gaslighting people about backdoors such as the closed-source firmware in almost all consumer electronic devices

What? So "the world is fucked and any attempt to unfuck it is futile" thats a good approach to life

If you think false advertising and gaslighting are attempts to unfuck the world, rather than what is fucked about it, go fuck yourself

Well let's say a new fully open source hardware device with open source firmware comes about. We would need this software to run on it, right?

This software probably also requires an OS and you might as well make your own messaging software while you're making the OS
