    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for displaying messages. The systems and methods include operations for: receiving, by a client device, a plurality of events from a plurality of channels; receiving, by the client device from a server, a configuration file comprising one or more rules for processing the sets of events from the plurality of channels; determining that a first event of the plurality of events is associated with a first event type and that a second event of the plurality of events is associated with a second event type; assigning, based on the configuration file, a first priority to the first event based on the first event type and a second priority to the second event based on the second event type; and displaying, by the client device, the first event and the second event according to the first priority and the second priority.

    Abstract: Method of dynamically assigning storage locations starts with the processor updating first user's home location data. Processor selects communication session between first user and second user and determines second user's home location data. Processor determines a session location data that indicates current storage location that stores data of communication session received from first and second client devices. Processor identifies available data storage locations based on first user and second user's home location data and determines whether to update the session location data based on an average of a distance over network fiber using the first user and second user's home locations, current storage location, and available storage locations. In response to determining to update the session location data, processor updates session location data to indicate one of the available storage locations, and causes transfer of data of communication session to one of the available storage locations. Other embodiments are described.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sending a combined read and reaction message. The systems and methods perform operations comprising: accessing, by a messaging application, a conversation session comprising a plurality of messages exchanged between a plurality of client devices, the messaging application being associated with a first client device of the plurality of client devices; generating, by the messaging application, metadata associated with one or more of the plurality of messages; encrypting, by the messaging application, the metadata in accordance with an end-to-end encryption process to enable a second client device of the plurality of client devices to read the metadata and prevent the second client device from modifying the metadata; and transmitting, to a server, a packet comprising an encrypted message slot and a first metadata slot, the first metadata slot comprising the encrypted metadata.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for deleting messages. The systems and methods include operations for: establishing, by a computing device, a communication session between a plurality of users, the communication session being associated with a first feature of a plurality of features of a messaging application; automatically deleting a first set of messages exchanged in the communication session based on a default deletion policy of the first feature; changing the default deletion policy of the first feature to a second deletion policy; and automatically deleting a second set of messages exchanged in the communication session based on the second deletion policy instead of the default deletion policy.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for exchanging messages between gateways. The systems and methods include operations for: storing, in a first gateway located in a first geographical region of a plurality of geographical regions, data that associates a plurality of users with the plurality of geographical regions; receiving, by the first gateway, a message directed to a given user of the plurality of users; determining, based on the data, that a second geographical region of the plurality of geographical regions is associated with the given user; and transmitting, by the first gateway, the message to a second gateway located in the second geographical region.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for data synchronization for client application generated data. Content may be generated by a client application executed by a creator client device and sent to a server system that may distribute the content to one or more additional client devices of recipients of the content. The server system can push content to the recipient client devices without receiving a request for the content from the recipient client devices. The content generated by the creator client device may be stored by each of the creator client device, by the server system, and by the one or more recipient client devices. The server system may also generate version data related to respective versions of content that may be consumed by a client application. The version data may be used by client devices to determine versions of content that may be missing from the client devices.
