Or maybe chat history just isn't that important overall. I can do backups just fine on android but have only used that once. I wouldn't be too concerned if I lost all of my chats, as I've already read them.

The core security and privacy features are what's most important. I'd prefer they keep those as the top priority.

i have disappearing messages set for 2 weeks by default.

i can't understand why anybody would need a 5 year history of their chats ๐Ÿคท

i remember using icq ๐Ÿ™Š i would have encyclopedic chat histories if i kept them. Chat is chat. Wind in the air. You hear it, then it's gone.
