FYI, e2ee messages like Signal's and Whatsapp's are decrypted on Beeper's server before they get reencrypted and forwarded to the recipient.

also, Whatsapp and Signal might log you out if you don't use their client for certain time.

yes, it's been added in a version that has only come out of beta today, if I'm reading their blog post correctly.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
