Do you bridge your sms from your actual phone number or did you have to set up a new VoIP number or something like that?
I've tried these but I need MMSes and can't figure out the alpha one with MMS.
I have a pinephone and found an okay one here. https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_MMS_with_Matrix#Set_up_MMS_bridge_service
It doesn't work very well but I can ssh into the pinephone and restart it or mess with the modem as needed. You run a matrix server and its a python script on the phone that bridges messages to it. I hate using my phone so its super easy to put up with. I do wish it was written better.... I've been considering either contributing to the project or making my own because it doesn't seem very active.
Edit, sorry, so, I forward my calls to a VoIP number and I bridge SMS/MMS using the pinephone to a selfhosted matrix server. Id love to bridge m'y calls to matrix too but I can't find anything that does that.
Thanks for that. I didn't realize those bridges even existed! Did you try mautrix-gmessages at all? It looks like it supports mms and rcs and is actively developed.
I need to set up a new matrix server but I'll probably give those a try too.
Having a pine phone would be pretty cool to have things like that to mess with.
No, i've never tried that one.
I do my best to stay far, far away from google. I have a used pixel 3 from ebay with GrapheneOS. No google play services or anything. I pay a company to host my mail (doing it myself wasn't worth it). I don't like to be the product and using the #1 advertising company services for free? Hard pass.
