As said I'm not a crypto expert, thanks for pointing me to the ephemeral keys, cool!
My point was more psycological and about the fact that Signal is not a silver bullet if the partner is compromised "though the use of ephemeral keys and prekeys provides some mitigation". Of course, I reapeat, besides the crypto technique just the whole UX experience make the product better and more secure, no doubts.

Perhaps I iper-semplified the matter and was too in hurry to define Signal ad "not more secure in any sense", my fault ✋

PS: Nostr is a protocol, Signal a product/platform, perhaps in the future someone will develop a DM infrastructure using Nostr that achive a great security standard, let's see 🤞
