🚨 PSA: On #nostr be careful with DMs.
Using your npub (public) key people can see who you are sending DMs to and can. even see the back and force messages encrypted. They can’t read your messages but it’s still information you may not want to divulge. It’s not a problem as long as you know this is the case.
If you want to test this, login with your npub (not private key) in a client that supports read only mode and see what is public: https://snort.social
Consider boosting this message so nobody is caught off guard.
