Well, sounds like the issue is that important specification details aren't part of the specification but clarified on the fly in some random chats.
At least it should be added to the issue/ticket description and not just as an appendix but a coherent text. Ideally, there should be a lot being clarified before even starting
Matrix client that lets you bridge a variety of chat apps. I imagine you’re using slack and at least one of the other messaging apps they support
How does it integrate Slack and WhatsApp, given they don't have official APIs? All reverse engineered?
I am extremely uninformed but here’s what I found for slack
https://help.beeper.com/en_US/chat-networks/slack
https://github.com/beeper/slackgo
It appears based on the 2nd link that slack may have an API.
I also prefer this approach, but the greatest difficulty lies in integrating GChat, especially after its latest security policies (https://github.com/mautrix/googlechat/issues/115). Do you also face this issue? Any tips/ suggestions for me.
I actually haven’t used beeper in ages. I don’t use many of the chat apps with official bridges other than signal and discord, and Instagram (when I had it) hated that I was bridged and threatened to ban me. Since I’m on iPhone open bubbles bridge isn’t worth setting up for me so I’m not gonna bridge iMessage either. Best of luck with chat and beeper though !! :)
