Are there matrix clients that do this? Only fetch messages from server when needed and not store locally?
I guess probably, because Matrix is thought for private chatting, i guess someone else might have had this same idea, i think matrix is opensource so there must be some client that does this.
Even if there is, though, that would only affect you and the messages you read. If you sent it to others, they could still do what they wanted with it.
Yeah sure, you have to trust your users
