In case you're not aware, Reddit will be replacing DMs with Chat and archiving all DMs at the end of the month. At least for now, this is a step backwards because by default chat messages can be deleted unlike DMs. Fortunately, the reddit admins have finally released the persistent messaging feature. Persistent Messaging You must be sure to enable it under the chat settings for every chat relating to homelabsales. Reddit admins indicated they aren't planning on enabling it by default but are potentially considering an account-wide option you can enable. Until that option is available you must remember to enable it for every chat. If not, you should periodically screenshot the entire chat history in case the other user deletes anything. Within the direct chat you will need to open the settings and enable the toggle shown below. https://preview.redd.it/wtcbhgqknoef1.jpg?width=435&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0ab04fa94c7da594033b9b6ae8cd6e8dadbe4ef8 Once enabled there will be a notice in the chat and all persistent messages will include the infinity icon. Only the user who enabled the feature can turn it off but there will be a similar notice in the chat. https://preview.redd.it/rdyc8bgvnoef1.png?width=331&format=png&auto=webp&s=73ff7cbcba1162f34a5d62e262c543aa73f2f542 As always, if you have any questions please message us via modmail.   submitted by   /u/the_cainmp [link]   [comments]
