Channels: Make old posts visible to new members when needed

I use Delta Chat with my students. I would like to share information via channels, for example vocal warmups in “vocal warmup channel”. But if I add new students to a channel, they won’t see the old posts which is a bummer.

Would it be technically possible to have a toggle switch per channel to “show/load old posts to new members”? Preferably this would be selected when creating a new channel.

It would open up many new possibilities in how to use channels!
