Hey nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9, as a big privacy advocate, I have huge respect for you. Did you know people can see who you message with in #Nostr? Am I the only one who thinks this is a big design flaw?

Also would love to hear the opinion of the #Monero people I know:

I guess leave it to Bitcoin maxis to develop a new social media protocol, right? NGL, this is kind of a deal breaker for me, I just think it's stupid and there is zero benefit in that. But according to them it's good that everything is out in the open because... reasons?

I also don't know to what extent other metadata is public, like ip address and such.

There are some clients that have adopted NIPS that resolve this using "gift-wrapped" messages. Amethyst is one I think, but double check me on that. Both users have to be using a client that supports it though.
