Do people here know about beeper, i would make it my main but it doesnt support calls and stuff which unfortunately makes it a dealbraker. I hope in the future we will be meta free
No, 1st time hearing about it. Apparently, it uses a matrix homeherver that uses open source bridges to connect to 15 different chat networks. If it supported calls would be great. Should give it a try regardless later. Anyway, here's the faq for anyone interested: https://www.beeper.com/faq
On a side note, I was wondering. Can't WhatsApp ban you for using a 3rd party client? I heard that used to be the case before. But, I'm not sure what it's it like today.
I have no idea if they would ban you, i atleast havent heard of that happening. Also just so you know there is is waitlist for signing up and it can take months
I do, but I'm on a waitlist (and don't want to selfhost) so I've not been able to try it out yet (I don't make calls through WhatsApp, so I see the lack of support as a benefit).
Oh I see, then it would probably be perfect for you, hope you get the invite soon
Message me and I'll send you an invite link to skip the waitlist. I think it's a thing I can do on the desktop app now
Oh, thank you very much! Will send you a DM.
This looks pretty good, signing up for the wait-list.
I used it a bit, but you need a WhatsApp account to chat with WhatApp user.
The goal is to have all your account and messages in one App, but you still need one account per Service (whatspapp, telegram, twitter ... ).
Yes of course, but till we have that its a very good workaround
