Messages syncing between iOS and MacOS seem to be working okay, BUT conversation deleting doesn't sync. This means, for example, when you go into MacOS Messages after only using iOS Messages for a while, you have dozens of old deleted (in iOS) conversations you have to delete again. Worse, you can only delete one conversation at a time. This annoys me to no end.
are you sure that you're actually 'syncing' them?
ie, if you have messages forwarded to your Mac, that doesn't necessarily mean that they are synced.
You would need to be using iCloud on both devices
On the iPhone, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud and make sure the switch is turned on for Messages
On the Mac, go to the Messages app, Messages menu > Preferences > @ Messages and make sure the box is checked for Enabled Messages in iCloud

Yes I'm really syncing. It's all set up. Why, do your conversations automatically delete from all devices when deleted from one?
Yes, they do for me. I tested deleting one as I was responding to your post
Well thanks for testing that. I don't know what's wrong then. I guess I'll go through the settings again.
Messages conversations syncing iOS/MacOS?
