Does anybody know if this exists? 🤔
A Nostr DM-oriented client that implements NIP-04 (Encrypted Direct Messages) and NIP-42 (Authentication of Clients to Relays) and is designed to Bring Your Own Relay?

Paging BBO's resident Nostr expert nostr:npub1gzuushllat7pet0ccv9yuhygvc8ldeyhrgxuwg744dn5khnpk3gs3ea5ds
There are several, nostrchat, blowater, and more that I am leaving behind, I recommend taking a look around nostr.net to see more alternatives On the other hand nip42 It is more a matter of the relay than of the client, it is described in the nip42 flow ( nips.be/42 ) You also have to think that you can connect to your relay if you have a certificate, normally if this does not exist the clients will not connect to your relay
With the features specified above? I doubt it.
I'm guessing you mean NIP-42. I hope now that the nostr:npub18na8n7phl8r3sz67nqh3zhdzslj24qc5ramuq9tdka4a4qhrk4pqpjnmgn bot is ripping everyone a new one clients and relays will start to implement it.
Also looking forward to get NIP-44 finalized.
But how nip 42 its gonna improve it?
It would move us from the current situation where everyone (e.g. nostr:npub18na8n7phl8r3sz67nqh3zhdzslj24qc5ramuq9tdka4a4qhrk4pqpjnmgn) can get their hands on everyone's encrypted DMs to one where only relay operators can get their hands on everyone's encrypted DMs.
Not a fix, but definitely an improvement IMO.
I see, yes it's an improvement👌
None of them implement nip42 I think, but you can always connect to your relay if you have it exposed to the internet
Well, both client and relay need to know about the NIP-42 flow 🤔 If the relay issues an AUTH challenge and the client doesn't know what do with it, it won't get the protected notes.
Yep, both have to implement the flow, nostr:npub1dww6jgxykmkt7tqjqx985tg58dxlm7v83sa743578xa4j7zpe3hql6pdnf your blowater client impments nip42?
Not yet.
