Hi Karl, so basically a feature like exporting a stream of messages into a file, transporting the file via any external media and importing the messages from the file to a peer would help, right?
I think that's possible to integrate because messages get verified with the senders identity key pair (ego) rather than using the key pair from a certain peer. I would think a feature like this could be implemented together with a function to backup chats into external files. Theoretically this is already possible because I have structured the storage in multiple directories which allows quite individual access for such a task but a good UI would definitely help.
