It would be nice if I could get SMS 2FA-type notifcations on my desktop without having to use my phone.

I probably wouldn’t use Signal with it, since Beeper’s own page seems to suggest that sending Signal messages with it would be less secure! And, I guess, SMS isn’t secure to begin with . . .

If I download and install Element, and then look at the SMS bridges available on Matrix’s website, the recommended bridge instructions sends me over to Beeper, since I don’t have my own server. Old and confused here . . .

      Yeah as much as the other options aren’t perfect, it’s why I went with KDE connect. 😔

      I am in the process of setting up my own Matrix server but it’s my first time using Ansible so who knows how that will go. Ugh.
