Here's another fun f-u from apple. they still don't allow us to silence DMs from muted people when decrypting push notifications. This is an entitlement you have to get from them which we have asked dozens of times and they refuse to give to us without any explanation.

Right now we can do this on our push notification server for old style DMs: check the user's mute list and not send the push notification if the user has muted the person.

We won't be able to do this with more secure DMs like nip17. We can't see who's sending the DM until we decrypt it on device. Without the entitlement we have to show the notification when we receive it, so spammers can spam notifications at you with new style DMs. Thanks apple.

We DMs. push server This we Here's the show push to times us new see notifications. notification we still

Oh, so people are going to start asking me why I wrote them empty DMs, again?

so creepy.

yeah apparently they don't like it when you have encrypted push notifications... I wonder why

if notifications cant be encrypted, the incoming messages across the most securely encrypted channels are easily read on device.

im not making that up right?

Try Android?

I'll bet apps that have obvious missing features is due to this entitlement system, like why you can't share items to element on ios.
