You must have used a very outdated client (like Pidgin) because history is syncronized via the server reliably since 10+ years on xmpp with clients that support the MAM standard.
I was using conversations and from what I understood the server handles syncing of history from clients that have all the history so of one disappears your history disappears. That is what played out in my tests.
That must have been a severly misconfigured server then. Normally history is stored on the server and synced on demand via MAM.
Of course with modern e2ee you can't actually decrypt old history on new devices, but that is an intentional feature with PFS.
