Illustrator managed to lose my diapers every time that I open the file it again.

Illustrator managed to lose my diapers, whenever I open the file it again. The objects that I put on the layers are grouped on the file, but they are always on one layer and it is the only available layer. Are they hidden or something? (I'm new to illustrator) I tried to create an extra layer, put a few items on it, saved. Open the file again and little matter I have they disappear! What is going on? I'm not very happy with that!

Illustrator treats differently the file formats than Inkscape does.

SVG is Inkscapes's native file format. Illustrator cannot handle SVG too well. Illustrators native file format is HERE. If you want full editability, you must always save I.

You can save a SVG with 'Modifiable Illustrator', but this is achieved by saving a SVG with embedded AI. The double file size, not suitable for the web. If you need SVG for a reason, I would recommend saving an AI for editablity and a SVG to upload on the web or get your developer.

So your strategy to save files totally depends on what you want to achieve.
