I was on the beta testing team and have been using Beeper for a little over two years now.

The convenience of having an application to house all of your chat networks is amazing.

Can you explain how this affects chat apps? What do they need to implement?

    They need to be interoperable. For example if you're on Signal but want to chat with your parents who are on FB Messenger, then you would be able to chat to them via Signal.

    You can envision each chat apps as different instances and these communicate to eachother with a common protocol, just like ActivityPub in Lemmy.
