I am just wondering what is the best way to handle a large stack of DM messages to a friend list that should not be made public. do we giftwrap all of them or pick a select relay that is app specific for this stack of DMs?

the "right way" to do things on nostr feels like its moving and changing constantly so I am just asking

I'm not familiar enough with the DM chat NIPs to answer this with any confidence. nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z and nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn and nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 all know more than me about multi-party DM.

I don't know if I follow? Can't you just send each as a separate event?

You could but if a big stack of DMs goes to a large relay they can rate limit or block, as it can look like spam.

Just pick 2+ relays for your kind 10050 relay list and you should be good. Local backups are a good extra measure, either on a local relay or using a jsonl file.
