    There are a lot of things you can survive without :)) They are still nice to have though.

    But I understand the privacy concerns, I struggle with the tradeoffs myself. But to me it’s worth it it this case since the database is supposed to be encrypted with a passphrase and stored locally, not sent over a network.

    Other examples would include searching through history to check if you’ve talked to someone about something. Or check their answer. Unless you are someone with perfect memory I would think these are common situations.

    I agree with you about saving the things you need. Especially images and videos since they are not worth the storage size.

    But a history of your conversations with people is pretty nice to have if you didn’t think about saving some info or it only becomes relevant later on. And as long it’s only kept on your own device, I’m fine with it. (But I guess, on the devices of people you speak to)

    Plus if you only save text, even 10 years worth of data is not much at all. A few videos probably weighs more.
