History of chat is not fetched

[pvonmoradi]

Upon re-connection, previous session's chat log is not shown. I think there is no need to "save" any logs upon exit since Matrix protocol saves the logs in server-side.

Thanks for this project 😊

I just realized on PageUp it fetches chat history. So I think the functionality is already good this way. Element webapp scrolls to the oldest chat when the user was present but it makes it slow and I don't know whether it has something to do with Element itself or just fetching old history is slow in Matrix.

So feel free to close this issue if you want since the current state is OK IMO.

It should automatically fetch some amount of messages if you switch to a buffer that's empty, at least that's what the Python script does.

Also, fetching message history in encrypted rooms doesn't work yet, though that needs to be solved in the rust-sdk.
