I really hope it will be possible to configure the Beeper app to use self-hosted bridges vs using a separate Matrix client.

Having the features and polish of the first party app, but with a user-controlled backend (like how Bitwarden does it) would be great.

BTW, I have a Pebble on my wrist right now :)

That's exactly what our bridge-manager repo allows you to do. Self-host the bridges yourself, use the Beeper client app.

One thing that would make beeper better than other options (eg self hosted matrix) would be the ability to combine multiple accounts from each service. I have multiple telegram, WhatsApp and discord accounts.

What I'd really like to do (and the poster you responded to) is to connect your app to my own self-hosted matrix-server.

I'm confused about the downvoting. This is absolutely what a lot of tech people want to do, use the nice client and self-host.

Genuine question. Why do you do this?
