    So that does change things, but doesn’t necessarily confirm it would natively work with Matrix (though doesn’t discount it either). Is there confirmation that mautrix bridges are cross-compatible to matrix? Technically Beeper is built off of mautrix which is based on Matrix but isn’t necessarily the same as Matrix. I don’t know much about Beeper as I only learned of it today.

      Maybe I’m wrong, but I thought that Matrix was a protocol, while mautrix was a client framework for the Matrix protocol written in Golang. Mautrix bridges are bridges for Matrix based on the mautrix framework. Beeper uses the Matrix protocol with some bridges (and maybe other components) based on mautrix; it’s basically a proprietary commercial fork of Synapse and Element with better-integrated bridges. I have several mautrix bridges on my Matrix server, and every mautrix bridge I see (including gmessages) says it’s for Matrix.

      I’m using 8 mautix bridges on my Matrix server: GMessages, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Discord, iMessage, Telegram, and Signal.
