How do you handle the encryption for large docs? In

SIGit

we found it was not practical to encrypt directly using a private key, esp when using a bunker signer So we instead encrypted with a password that was shared over DM

We modified the original nostr-tools implementation to open up nip-44 for large files. it doesnt work with signers, but if you have keys it works. It is not backwards compatible though

isn't the secret in a nip-46 string a back-channel negotiation code?

oh, for specific documents. and you want to use something that can't be correlated. so, a seed, instead of an explicit key, combined with a pre-arranged concatenated path string would be simpller and more effective because it can be carried in one message.

A regular ephemeral key works in this solution, simpler UI. User doesn't have to know, even though their device or their account keys are encrypting the document keys.
