I've had some issues with nostr chat apps, like 0xchat. What's the state of the art in secure nostr messaging?

Same. So unreliable it's unusable.

Haven't tried yet, but I think the latest contender is White Noise

Let's try White Noise.

Okay. I'll have a light review of the code tonight. It's flutter+rust so that be a review of the mild headache kind, but I'm getting used to that stack a bit more now.
(edit: holy shit dat commit message insanity - I'll probably be the first ever to actually look at the code other than Claude)

just the first one in the list that's crazy:

The bot knew about it! Because it's an expert Dart programmer

So as a joke I had Claude review in parallel with me, to see if it came up with something I'd missed. I had to actually push it because it was off regarding how the blossom integration works, lol.
**IMPORTANT:** My previous comment about NIP-44 encryption was
**INCORRECT**. After reviewing the actual source code in the
`whitenoise` and `mdk` repositories, here is the factually accurate
encryption implementation:

Thank you for prompting me to verify against the actual source code.
Damn bot is like a lazy jr dev that I'd fire if fucked up like this. lol.

I’m already confused haha
Why do I need to “sign up” for a decentralised messenger? Who am I signing up with?
But I guess I’m just overthinking and most wouldn’t think about this.

I thought the same thing.

Not entirely sure what you mean, but if you mean discovery, it depends on your relay. The most popular relays can be slow sometimes, and I figured that this is why when I open Amethyst it takes up to 3-4 minutes sometimes to load everything up.
One of the things I think is needed w/ nostr is "offline-first", like email. I'd want to have a local cache of everything I've already seen; especially my own notes, and keep track of what got published where, republish when needed. This may feel antithetical to some nostr (pwa) dev patterns but local state should always trump relay state, even if you run your own relay.

just use xmpp on your own server.

You can also use PGP to encrypt your xmpp messages if you prefer, but my point is xmpp is very easy and lightnweight to self-host. You can run it in a rpi1, 2 devices...

You can setup a server and open an account for her, family and friends.
