mleku on Nostr: the algorithm for padding is insane... extending to a power of two... my mute list ...
the algorithm for padding is insane... extending to a power of two... my mute list with its nip-44 encryption made by jumble is over 128kb in size
not surprised that a badly designed algorithm is buggy, nip-04 did not have this problem, all it really needed was a decent randomized padding length extension, using powers of two is just completely bonkers
