Quick question, I seem to get a bunch of random signing requests with my browser extension (Flamingo) when I use Coracle. They happen even when I'm idling. Is there a reason for this? It makes me a bit uneasy since no other web client does this for me.
đĻĢ Got a new Coracle release for you all on this fine autumn day.
This is again mostly a maintenance release, with lots of performance improvements of all stripes due to moving a fair amount of code to welshman and refactoring it on its way.
@welshman/app is now available for any aspiring nostr client developers out there, with lots of high-level utilities so that you can hit the ground running â although beware, no docs, tests, or stable versions yet.
Other highlights include showing profile pictures in DMs, and removing WoT score display so it's purely visual. I've gotten a lot of feedback that the numbers are confusing and/or unhelpful. nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2ap0qyvhwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndehhyapwwdhkx6tpdshsz9nhwden5te0v96hg6pwdehhxarjxyhxxmmd9uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcqyrmg86rsxhm66n6yuzuce77e2dlpv326jtxn3nhufje3md640a00yhrhac9 will probably consider this a win đ

Discussion
There are a few possible reasons for this â coracle loads a fair amount of data in the background, like DMs, groups, relay selections, profiles, follow lists, etc of people you follow, which requires connecting to relays, which often implies signing an authentication event. You can turn this off in settings.
Another thing that happens in the background is decrypting various messages, lists, or settings. That can create some chatty dialogs too if you don't accept all.
Finally, I'm in the process of prototyping an interoperable "seen status" event kind which tracks when you last checked your notifications or various conversations. These will get created when you visit your notifications page or open a conversation.
If this doesn't explain it, send over the signing request (in particular the event kind), I might be forgetting something.
