Hi guys, I think there is a privacy concern here in Nostr. So I can login using npub right, even though I can't see what are the message being thrown around (it looks gibberish, perhaps encrypted), but at least I can see who send what message and when the message is send.

And if the message perhaps an image / referring to other post (I'm not sure which one) it's visible as is. And for the encrypted message, there is a concern of it being decrypted if that is possible, I'm not sure. I'm not a tech person

I tried to do this in both snort social and amethyst using Preston npub, it works. I don't use iOS so I can't tell if Damus also have the same experience. Even if I can't know what message is being send back and forth here, I know who Preston have interaction here and how many message exchanges are there and the timing of each exchange.

Can we just prohibit login using npub? Or only make npub able to see feed, not DMs

Sorry for using u in my example here
