I feel like this could work fine on Damus with a little tinkering. When Damus initially received and renders an event that mentions a file attachment it can show it as a note mention, and once it pulls in the note and sees that it’s an image file it can upgrade the display of the note from inline note mention to an inline image. If the transition can be done smoothly without screwing up your scroll position it would be nice.
It’s definitely more complicated than regular inline image URLs, because now to render you need to have both the text note and the file attachment note, but it’s not impossible.

Damus can of course do it but it’s making nostr worse by forcing this update on everyone and making it harder to show images. Damus will never implement creating image uploads this way for this reason.

Agreed that images are so common in kind:1 notes that it would be wise to require a sub resource integrity digest within kind:1 notes itself.
Users should be able to opt-out of this behavior: Any images without an SRI hash will not be shown inline, but will be shown as a link.
Images with SRI hash: safe to display inline.
Images with no SRI hash: Not safe. Only a matter of time that all your previous kind:1 notes will show porn or propaganda since those can be hacked.
