Do you ever miss important client messages because everything’s scattered?

Matrix client that lets you bridge a variety of chat apps. I imagine you’re using slack and at least one of the other messaging apps they support
nice, a single pane of glass for law enforcement or other marketing firms to see all your communications!
Like any matrix client, it uses their e2ee before hitting the matrix home server.
Fair point, but it’s really about simplifying scattered conversations for productivity, not creating a surveillance dashboard.
I also prefer this approach, but the greatest difficulty lies in integrating GChat, especially after its latest security policies (https://github.com/mautrix/googlechat/issues/115). Do you also face this issue? Any tips/ suggestions for me.
I actually haven’t used beeper in ages. I don’t use many of the chat apps with official bridges other than signal and discord, and Instagram (when I had it) hated that I was bridged and threatened to ban me. Since I’m on iPhone open bubbles bridge isn’t worth setting up for me so I’m not gonna bridge iMessage either. Best of luck with chat and beeper though !! :)
How does it integrate Slack and WhatsApp, given they don't have official APIs? All reverse engineered?
I am extremely uninformed but here’s what I found for slack

It appears based on the 2nd link that slack may have an API.
