I have read in the TOS for the Matrix server that all messages are deleted after one year. If I am talking with someone, does that mean that messages that are older than a year are deleted on my side, or both sides of the conversation? What if the chat is E2EE? If I am using a device that is signed in and has seen old messages, are they removed from that device too?

    storage requirements are a serious issue for large public Matrix servers

    Should I still consider joining tchncs then? I don’t really want to overload their servers. I’m only in a few rooms with little activity, though.
