Do people actually use DM’s on here?
Discussion
Don’t. People can see who you dm. And if your key leaks so does your entire dm history. I use it only for things I don’t care if they go public
Oh weird - thanks for that info! Was wondering why it rarely seems to be a topic of conversation
But..wasn't nostr been created just for that, to have secure dms without third party in the middle ? What is then the alternative to have DM privacy ?
No it was not. Nostr is primarily a broadcasting protocol. Dms are opposite - something you want to keep secret.
I don’t know of any solution as I’m not a developer. Either some genius thinks of something or we just don’t dm here.
Oh wow! What are some other pitfalls to avoid if we are concerned about privacy?
Yup we do. But, treat them as private public messages.
Got it! & thanks for the test example 😆
