To expand, nHeko frequently resets, requiring me to input the credentials and verify it again

The resets sound like a bug. Probably related to a secret service issue? If Nheko resets, it might not have shared the session keys yet. Alternatively, you can try enabling online keybackup, which should help with that too.

~~@deepbluev7 Is there a Flatpak available of the pre-released version 0.9.0 to try it out?~~

I see I was too early Thanks for the update

This only happens with cross-verification for some reason

But if I import the exported keys from Element, it works fine Any idea @deepbluev7 ? Also happens in v0.9.0

Nheko should rerequest the keys, if you restart it once after verification. Does it not do that? Is online key backup enabled?

Similar problem here. I needed to run Element (for hosting the keys I assume) and restart nheko multiple times for all messages to get decrypted.
