NoStrudel needs nip17 (private DMs) support! There is a bounty of $300US so far to get it integrated, with some work started which by my judgement doesn't function yet.
If you have implemented it before, maybe you want to earn a quick bounty?
If you also want to know if you have DMs that your client hasn't shown you yet, maybe you also want to chip in?
@hzrd149 sounded reluctant to integrate nip17 in ways that make it "just work" as default-decrypt-all-messages isn't for him personally and the crux with nip17 is that the client doesn't even know which conversation a DM belongs to until it's being decrypted but I think that is just a settings requirement. Maybe nip17 needs a "check for and decrypt all private DMs" button.
Decrypt all from the past week. Then load the week before as the user scrolls the list down.
I see, so there's a potential Cybill attack inherent in gift wraps
? How does any of this lead you to a Cybill attack?
I mean you could get bombarded with messages that you won't know are yours until you decrypt them.
Sure, but that's just spam. It's true for the whole of Nostr and the old nip04. Any key can send you a DM.
But a Sybill attack is about using fake identities to gain majority power. The fake identities on Nostr don't give the attacker extra power/influence in the network.
Ok sybill was the wrong word. I'm just saying it's worse than normal spam because you can't filter it until you've spent resources to decrypt it, and the server can't filter it for you either.
Correct. Which is great if you don't want servers censoring you. :)
