Last I knew you could TECHNICALLY self-host everything but with little documentation on how to set it up.

Most of the bridges you can find here:

Documentation is here:

I have an older Mac dedicated to this singular purpose. It works well. That bridge + SmsMatrix on my android phone means I can get my text messages & iMessages from my (all iPhone family) anywhere I can load the Riot web app.

Note that it's kind of an interesting hack: IIRC It's just talking to the local sqlite data store that the Mac is receiving messages to. I worry that apple may one day say "Nope" and shut down this "API" we were never supposed to have.

Yes. Self-host using this Ansible playbook has been a joy.

A top notch well managed Ansible setup!

It hasn’t integrated in a good iMessage bridge yet last I checked. Hopefully soon!

thanks for the heads up, i'm gonna give this a try! i tried to set up matrix before, but i just couldn't get it working ;(

I've been self hosting it all long before I knew it had a commercial front (Beeper), the docs are fine. That's from the POV of someone who was already running a Matrix server, though.
