And in more news, Beeper has been acquired by Automattic and I guess will be signing exclusive deals, selling user data, and raising subscriptions, all in order to pay off the debt created through the acquisition.
(Not a cynical response: this actually just happened: [Beeper](https://blog.beeper.com/2024/04/09/beeper-is-joining-automattic/) )

Hah, I was a bit quick to tag as “cooltech” and noticed this as well as a few comment noting concerns over preserving encryption. I tried to remove from reposting, but alas here it came.
At first glance a unified messaging app has an allure, but with more thought, one has to reconsider as always we do now, what price convenience. I think I will keep my sprawl of messaging apps where they are.

As you write that, I’m signing up for Beeper anyways. It’s too interesting to just be left alone.
