Beeper iirc is the basis for most matrix bridges I use. I‘m not sure this is a good development since I found nothing about their code staying open source which is would be really bad. Another company to try and steal the communities work for profit.
I hope it is going to be ok. Automattic has been involved with matrix before. Time will tell, but I’m more hopeful than afraid.
I hope so too. I bet we‘re gonna see a couple more companies pull that move though since I see a pattern of the world slowly moving towards open source… that makes me vaguely opticmistic. Not because of the companies pulling such moves but a tendency away from proprietary bs.
Quite to opposite. They used to be open, now the app is closed.
I like to imagine a world where beeper would’ve been aquired by Proton instead… a man can dream
Right? This was unexpected.
I’m glad proton isn’t wasting their money on a money sink that seems to open security holes. If they’re going to take a risky bet on something i rather they make a premium Linux phone
This is an ad. The real story is that Automattic paid them a ton of money, closed the source of their app, and launched this shitty inauditable app while pretending to he an open source project
If the encryption happens in the client and the client source isn’t available, then all cliams for security are incredible.
