Firstly ~ I’m a huge fan of beeper! Can’t wait for a paid tier to come out so I can support it. I recently got my partner on to beeper as well & I was wondering what platform do y’all prefer for messaging with other people also on beeper?
At the moment we’re using WhatsApp via beeper (we were using WhatsApp before) ~ I’m considering moving to matrix on beeper, but it seems much less feature complete (Can’t show her profile picture on it since rooms can only have one photo for everyone, typing indicator doesn’t function, etc.) I’d like to move away from Meta-owned WhatsApp. What do you suggest?

Is there a way to have separate profile pictures on the chat? I’d like them to see my picture & me to see theirs.

A matrix direct message ~ they don’t seem to support DMs so instead it’s a room!

If I can ask, what caused you to leave beeper?

Matrix. You can use your beeper account on one of the more fully featured matrix clients such as Element X
In my mind, having to use a whole new client defeats the point 😅
It’s the same account though. You can have both clients or just element
