#Amethyst v0.94.0: Encrypted Media on DMs
Now every upload on DM chats will be encrypted to the destination's pubkey following the same spec 0xChat uses. This offers a massive update in privacy from the common "hidden link" design. The encrypted blobs are sent to NIP-96 and Blossom servers. Make sure your server accepts encrypted blobs. Sattelite and void.cat do accept. We redesigned our upload screens to allow multiple images/videos on new posts, stories, and chat encryption. Error handling was also improved with the screens now allowing you to try again on a different server.
