@Gina reset causes losing access to previous messages, not channels and rooms iirc

@silhouette but will I lose any chat history in channels as well?

hi @Gina you lost all "other devices"? oor do you still have a "security-key.txt" somewhere on one of your devices?

@Gina

Yeah, this is one of the reasons why Matrix isn't ready for general usage yet. The UX is just bad, maybe in a couple of years it's good enough, but as of November 2025 it's a big nope for me.

Terence Eden has a more in depth blogpost on why Matrix is just meh at best as of 2025:
