You're missing that NIP that says "just use SimpleX".
Because of the increased interest in encrypted chat recently, I decided to put together a survey of different proposals with a summary of their common ideas. The goal is to allow us to 1. decouple different use cases from another, but keep a shared core that devs can build on, 2. get us all behind one proposal, and 3. pack everything into that proposal that is needed for good UX and privacy.
Please take a look and leave comments/corrections, and tag anyone else working on an implementation.

It's on there, nip-lol
We are dedicated to making Nostr not Simple. :)
possible to incorporate simplex within nostr?
The thing I don’t like with simpleX is I can’t send a message easily to someone. For example, I can’t send you a message without first notify you I want to send you a message (except if you share your simpleX address to everyone, but you don’t)
With nostr I already have your public key so I can send you a message directly, then you are free to accept or notes sages from non followers
That's why I think we should try to integrate SimpleX with Nostr clients instead of just installing the app that exists. We could use Nostr to coordinate the messaging.
But to fair I don't really see DMs on Nostr either, so that thing about sending a message directly to anyone is not valid for me. Also you never know in which relays people are checking for DMs.
Interesting, SimpleX Chat is written in Haskell. Integration sounds useful.
I like what you said. I agree.
NIP 44 is describing how it works with NIP 65 for relay discovery
I hate auto correction so much sometimes.
