These seems like strongarming other clients to implement some spec they may not want to implement. Now we have broken images from a major nostr client. Are you implementing images this way #[5] ?

The idea is to not stop at images. PDFs, music, APKs, etc. Everything will be hashed.

Agree, we need backwards compatibility until consensus is reached. Breaking functionality to force a change is not cool.
Normally it’s fine but this completely breaks a core feature in most clients (images). Doing this in a backwards incompatible way is just way too much. Good to hear he’s switching back to urls.
I want to use the magnet links so probably, damus can continue to use the url. But it's not optimal
I already implemented nip94 on snort but only for parsing other clients didn't implement it yet som I'm just waiting
I think magnet links should be built on https://webtorrent.io instead of a non-browser-accessible protocol.
