I also have never had issues. (if mobile = Android) That sounds like you either didn't set it as the os default messaging app or some "battery saver" optimization is running wild. If you can truly reproduce the issue, you could always create your own patch (assuming you're a software dev since hn).

You can also set up automatic backups of conversations into an encrypted database. Certainly not a fix for whatever your problem is, but could be a workaround.

This is on desktop and iOS, I don't use Android. Incoming messages appear as "Error handling incoming message", and the automatic backups are unusable because you can't import the backups on another device. I shouldn't have to patch my messaging app to have it be usable...
