I hate Facebook but realized I can’t uninstall the bloatware Messenger app from my phone since I actually need it for Facebook Marketplace (I usually use it for selling second-hand stuff and looking for other products/services). Also I have plenty of friends there and it might be good to reconnect with some without dealing with the spyware Meta shit.
Also something for WhatsApp would be good as well
Matrix with some bridges?
I use WhatsApp through it without using the official WA app.
Beeper
Beeper is indeed Matrix with a WA bridge.
Link?

Note that if you use their version, they host the bridge, so you need to trust them.
