@signalapp@mastodon.world I'd say, I personally never needed this feature. Messenger just mirrors what used to be a regular face to face discussion. Why would I need to retain its contetens forever? If anything of importance was said, you note it somewhere more persistent, like your notes app, not rely on finding it later in the history. But I guess, I'm in a minority here

@via4@mastodon.social @signalapp@mastodon.world > Messenger just mirrors what used to be a face to face discussion Well, you can see it as an added benefit. I would love to be able to rewind years back and re-listen to a conversation I had. Just because the "original" has drawbacks doesn't mean you have to keep them. You don't always know in a moment what is of importance and what isn't, and it'd be a LOT of manual writing if we were to note down anything that *could* be useful later
