For anyone that might need to hear it. I just installed the flatpak, and when linking it to my Molly app, I saw on the app the option to sync all message history. This is what always bugged me on the desktop client. Seems they finally went ahead to enable this feature.

      Yeah, this. They should really make an os-agnostic database of the chats to freely export/import among devices, like simpleX allows

        Interesting feature, surely possible. I have seen that on “Threema”. Of course, secured by two layers of passwords/-phrases and strict connection procedure.

        Why do you need this? I’m curious because I didn’t even notice Signal had this restriction. To me instant messenges really aren’t something that I’d ever need an archive of.

          Might be my data hoarding tendencies. It’s moments which I have the option to not erase and dont take up much storage, so why not. I guess with face to face communication this wouldnt be a thing, but now I have the option and it bugs me to let it go I guess.
