I dont think it's a good idea that everyone can access other people DMs 🤔

But they can't see the messages.

Welcome to Nostr. :)

They can't see the *content* of the messages

我进入你的主页很卡顿,也许是你的关注人数或者其他数据太多了,其他人主页没有这么卡顿。来自amethyst客户端

So it's not really private messages 🤔

I am confused. Private messages is about the content being private. People can almost always see who you are talking to.

I'm not a tech person at all 😅 but for me private messages are like on twitter or messenger where you can't see who people are talking to in private messages.

Maybe we are not talking about the same thing

Twitter employees can see all the content of your messages & which people you are talking to. In that sense, it is not private at all.

In Nostr, people can see the names of the people you are talking to but CANNOT see the contents of the message. Only the two persons in the conversation can see each other's content.

Any plans for nip24 private messages?

Personally I don't have a problem with it, but I think users should know that it's different from other social media on this point :)

#[13] maybe a good idea to put the same disclaimer in places as Iris does?

It would be cool if we could attach an expiry time on private messages so they could trigger an automatic deletion by the relays. Not sure if it would be technically possible though.

You should make nip17 the standard before sending a message 😉

能否改进任何人看不到你私信给谁?可以在发私信的时候再做一个声音提醒吗?私信里面能添加发语音和图片的功能吗?
