corndalorian on Nostr: 🤷‍♂️ DMs on nostr are a mess, not implemented well and/or fragmented ...
🤷‍♂️ DMs on nostr are a mess, not implemented well and/or fragmented implementations, some of which are not completely private. And then what happens if your private key is compromised and you have sensitive info in your DMs? Can’t delete those events reliably because anyone can keep a backup of them, and you can’t rotate them to a new key. DMs on nostr are a disaster waiting to become an even worse disaster. Don’t use them.
