"See all" in Shared Media only shows 50 most recent media

[wassim-devel]

Using a supported version?

• I have searched searched open and closed issues for duplicates.
• I am using Signal-Desktop as provided by the Signal team, not a 3rd-party package.

Overall summary

Any user who clicks on "See all" would expect that all media shows up, but only 50 most recent do
Is there a technical reason why the list is truncated?

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to any chat
2. Click on username
3. Click on "see all"

Expected result

All media shows up

Actual result

Only 50 most recent media shows up

Thanks for reporting this! This is a known limitation and we plan to look into it eventually. As a temporary remedy you can open lightbox from the last message and use arrows to scroll to the older media.
