Oh ..I got you .. sorry for jumping the gun .. you mean you wanna post but you want to limit your posts to few people ..right ? Then post to your own relay and let the people you want to share with add your relay .. isn't that simple ?

At your relay , you can sure restrict access .. I am not sure though ! With NIP 96 , you will prolly have capability to set up your own media server too ..

I guess I am more interested in #nostr being more protective in privacy-vulnerable situations and reveling less of the metadata.

For example. if I want to hide my IP I need to go through VPN, tor or maybe tor through VPN.

That's kind of IT-heavy.

So I could use #torbrowser as an out-of the box solution.

But I should not install any extensions in the torbrowser, so how do I securely login to nostr then?

On a social media platform , I guess the main objective is fearless speakers not getting cancelled - rather than someone who wants to say something but hide their identity.. that said , I guess there could be situations ( eg voting) where you do wanna support a controversial idea but don't wanna give your identity for the fear of persecution.. and you wanna do it without much of a technical debt .. I think #nostr is the only platform that could enable such features but they may come in the later NIPs .. my 2 ..not an immediate priority till it really becomes a global town square ..
