Encrypted contact list. Follow someone and no one else can know.

Is this a lot of work? Any bounty for the feature already exist?

It is a non-trivial amount of work.

Afaik no bounty exists for user lists on damus

Interesting to have this feature, but when you DM someone, everyone knows?

This is certainly not optimal and I hope it doesn’t stay this way

I originally thought “no one knows”. Not sure what telling only the person you’re following would accomplish. Feels like a “like” to me, a social cue not a real value exchange. But I guess if it’s easy either way give users both options?

🤙 user lists feature request has a private list option:
