Private Nostr #1183

Open jb55 opened 1 month ago

jb55 commented 1 month ago

I wanted to create a tracking issue that collects some of the approaches for making notes more private, or gives more control over how notes are viewed and by who. I have expressed interest in doing a nostriga talk along these lines so I would love to gather all of the approaches for the talk if I end up doing it.

Please comment here if you have your own approach you want to add to this list!

566 might be worth mentioning. There's also the signature stripping idea which may or may not be represented above. Also AUTH protected relays, which I've done a fair amount of work on with triflector and relay invite codes.

Looks complete. The only other way would be to use Encrypted Group messages on https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/686 but that's quite a privacy overkill for most of these "workgroup" notes.

You might want to separate encrypted vs non-encrypted stuff for the talk. The number of encrypted options alone can get overwhelming and distract from the goals of these approaches.

I am not sure if this helps, but I used this image in the past to try to map out all of these solutions

I just created Notestr for private notes (PoC). The flow is here. You can try it at https://notestr.pages.dev/example which allows your followees to read your private notes (through ephemeral events tentatively).

I think it would be easier to control private notes if they are all in one server. The servers should be decentralized and you can use any server as NIP-96.
