There was a problem hiding this comment.
I should be able to remove that clippy rule again since we increased that in the clippy.toml

I've had ongoing discussions with @tototomate123 and we have decided this feature and the underlying infrastructure is not quite ready for the impending release. As a consequence we will not even be calling the next release 1.5.0. Development will resume at the beginning of the next cycle instead. |

As for now: is there any way to cleanup stale media of already deleted messages? 🙌 |

This PR implements a media retention and cleanup system with full encrypted room support, featuring CBOR-based storage, a reaction-based UI, and automatic media lifecycle management.
PR is ready for review! Over the last 5 days, Ive replaced the background retention worker with an event-driven architecture that hooks directly into timeline events. When users delete messages containing media, the notifications they receive in their user rooms now include a ♻️ "save preference" option, that will always delete media for redacted messages in un- or encrypted chats, giving them immediate control over media cleanup.
All of this is configurable via the tuwunel configuration file.
