Which client has disappearing notes, like in SimpleX?

Seems like an inefficiency, to have to keep everyone's delete events forever. Even this change wouldn't completely solve for that, as some people are rotating fast through keys or auto-deleting on a script, but not "burning" the npub.

Maybe we should make more use of NIP-40. If someone is delete-happy, couldn't they just have a client setting that causes their notes to expire after about 3 months. Then you don't have to retain an event, after deleting.
