I was on the beta testing team and have been using Beeper for a little over two years now.

The convenience of having an application to house all of your chat networks is amazing.

That's fine... for you, right now.

But I (and probably most users) don't know them, over time people come and go, some even change who they are, businesses get sold. Only open source persists.

Thankfully all of the Matrix bridges they created for Beeper are open source.

Ok, ok, I get it... but I'm still wary of a business model based on closed clients. Guess we'll see how it goes.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
