   In Monocles Chat is there a way to copy my #XMPP chat history to a new device? As in, for adding a secondary device that'll be using different OMEMO keys but will share existing chat history.
   
   Can't find a way to do this on Conversations IM either.

     @bunni backup clones your chat history and keys. Monocles Chat lacks the ability to revoke its own keys, so now you have two devices using the same keys. Which is bad. :blobcat_daradara:
     
     Server-side archiving is enabled, but that stores an encrypted copy of the chat logs which are useless without the keys.

     @Polychrome maybe server-side archiving could help? (In the account's options)

     @Polychrome does backup not do that?
     If so I'll look more into it
