Do your chats look like this? Do you always forget which contacts use which apps? Do you wish there was a way to have all your chats in just one place?

In the following guide I’m going to show you how to use Matrix to achieve your dream of an all-in-one chat app, by using Matrix bridges and securing the connection with Cloudflare Tunnels.

    “Oops I sent that goatse meme to my boss, not my friend” is not a fuckup I want to have. Segregation of apps is sometimes a virtue.

    Beeper is great but you have no idea what they’re doing with your data.

    This is work, and I still think there’s a niche between the two, with an assembled docker rather than ansible playbook, that is going to be the one that takes off.

    I’ve been doing this for years. I also bridge my SMS/MMS messages. I’d LOVE to bridge calls somehow too

      Do you bridge your sms from your actual phone number or did you have to set up a new VoIP number or something like that?

    I use ferdium.

    It’s combines every app/website I want to be connected to. Snapchat Lemmy Element Gmail Google tasks Discord Google messages Mastadon Steam chat FB messenger Proton mail Microsoft teams Telegram Slack Github Icloud

    You can even add custom services, although I haven’t tried to do it. The only one missing is signal.

    It is desktop only though
