Show HN: Franz – A desktop client for Apache Kafka
I thought this was https://meetfranz.com/ until the word “Apache Kafka” and was puzzled.
Naming things and name collisions…

Is there an app that can combine Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, Instagram DMs, and SMS into one unified inbox?
But for Windows or Linux PC, I'd use this one Franz to view multiple chat apps

Texts.com invite
Thats insane! I thought it was a free thing that just required an invite to access. Jeez! I have seen an alternative called Franz, not tried it yet though. By the looks of it does have a free alternative aswell as paid version.
- Viewing multiple email accounts
- A single "control panel" app which aggregate every single social media chat/messenger, email, and other platforms?
-
Message Integration app
There is also https://meetfranz.com/. But its neither selfhosted nor free. (well unless you only need 3 different services)

Tired of so many chat apps. Looking for a software to rule them all (well combine them all)
Or Franz

I Created Custom Artwork for Franz App
For anyone who doesn't know what Franz is, you can check out the link below. It is essentially an application that allows you to access (most of) your online messaging apps in the same place. Which is convenient when you want to, for example, check your facebook, discord and IG messages at the same time. https://meetfranz.com/

The SkyOS (beta) Setup Guide
I will use this and give it a fair chance. My only criticism right now is that this is the same exact thing as the skynet homescreen but they added in Winbox.js: https://github.com/nextapps-de/winbox to allow for each app to be windowed. To call it an operating system or revolutionary is a little hyperbolic. Seems like they should just merge that behavior into the normal skynet homescreen and call it a day. Maybe this kernel project you refer to will make it more advanced.
