tried searching but came up short… anyone know what’s their message retention policy i.e. how long is chat history available for private, 1on1 chats?
Effectively, forever.
so what unlimited cloud storage a la telegram? can you share where that’s stated? thanks.
By default a retention policy isn’t set but, if it is set, it’s on a per-room basis. You have to remember Matrix is federated so things are not so clear cut as centralised services.
See, https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/blob/develop/docs/message_retention_policies.md
yeah I found that but I don’t know how to query matrix.org for those settings, no clients I tried can tell me what the settings are. I’m just interested in 1on1 chat where both users are on matrix.org, so federation shouldn’t complicate things (?)
you could ask in the official matrix hq room
tried three times, either neochat explodes or the messages don’t go through. thanks anyway.
