Unified messaging platforms in 2026 (beeper, matrix-mautrix, ?)

[canadaduane]

What's the current status of unified messaging platforms in 2026?

I see a few threads from 3 years ago regarding beeper when it was making news.

I would love to be able to put each of us at the center of our lives--using communication platforms as bridges, rather than the way they wish to be used (as islands of corporate ownership and monetization of user attention and influence).

Is matrix-mautrix good? Does anyone use it in conjunction with the cloudron matrix instance?

Is beeper's self-hosted option good?

Are there alternatives to consider?

Thanks!
