New Beeper Android App
On-device bridging works like this https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. We'll put together a full technical deep dive for the real launch, this is just an open beta. Our signal bridge code is open source: https://github.com/mautrix/signal
You don't have to use our hosted bridges, we've made it ridiculously easy to self host: https://github.com/beeper/bridge-manager

Second Phone, Same Signal
Exactly yeah, I used this bridge with this playbook
- Have you tried any decentralized messengers?
-
Best KaiOS device for a user in the US?
I personally recommend going with a Matrix client and building a bridge to your Signal account.

Hosting Signal frontend on a local server (Like Signal desktop but through website)
OWS has historically been hostile to third party implementations outside of their clients. There are multiple unofficial options but the only one I've been looking at is the bridge with matrix, though setting up a matrix server just for this is likely overkill.

Beeper >> Signal
However, looking at the Matrix docs for the mautrix-signal bridge, it seems to be open-source and end-to-end encrypted. You'll have to look through the source code to figure out how they did that, I guess, because I couldn't find any details.

Let’s chat about RCS
Once you have the home server set up and configured (not covered here because it's a process), clone the bridge repo (for instance mautrix-signal and follow the instructions.

Signal discussed at May Contain Hackers 2022 Conference
There are good reasons to exert a level of control over what connects to a communication network. But effectively shutting out a community of developers that would love to implement Signal clients for less popular OSes (many of which happen to attract the kind of infosec-aware crowd that used to be the core pushers of Signal) is not a good outcome.
- The status of Signal-Desktop-5.0.0 running on Pinephone made progress.
