Automattic has added Beeper to their project roster that includes Wordpress, WooCommerce, Penpot and more.
As an open source project based on Matrix, with packages available for Linux… I think this ensures the future for a viable messaging app on our platform of choice.
This will further augment the use of Matrix, which may not be the best protocol for the job as others have commented in the past, but it’s better than proprietary alternatives, and a great starting point.
Also, waitlist is gone. Sign ups are now open: https://www.beeper.com/
Use at your own risk. Its a closed source app and can’t be trusted
