That certainly is not a feature I have ever cared about. Do people really scroll back through old chat logs on a regular basis? I wonder why.

- Jarwain 6y agoI don't know if I would say I do so Regularly, but I find having the history available useful on occasion for remembering or referencing prior discussions. Sometimes there's a link I've shared with one friend that I'd like to share with another friend some indeterminate amount of time later, and so it's convenient to just go to that first conversation and search through it.
- dividedbyzero 6y agoAbsolutely. I just searched way back one chat to find the size of a bike helmet I bought that I had mentioned there years ago, as mine has been stolen this afternoon. Others contain fond memories, cooking recipes, there is a group chat we have with locations and restaurants to visit. It's been useful on many occasions to have those logs as a kind of informal diary, because I mention most important events to at least one of my closest remote friends. Not having persistent chat logs is a dealbreaker for me.
