Взлет и падение пейджера. История яркой, но быстрой технологии, которую вы можете помнить из 90хх
Технология пейджинговых сетей интуитивно может казаться чем-то устаревшим. Для тех, кто еще помнит слово “пейджер” это наверняка ассоциируется с девяностыми. Но если задуматься, то пейджинговые сети решали довольно современную задачу: массово рассылали индивидуальные и групповые сообщения тысячам абонентов. В наш век IoT такие рассылки вновь актуальны. Если же копнуть глубже, то мы увидим совсем удивительные вещи: высочайшая помехоустойчивость, сверхизбыточное кодирование и технология энергосбережения батарейки оконечного устройства. Мы сейчас точно про пейджеры, а не про LoRaWAN какую-нибудь? Давайте вкратце вспомним историю пейджера и разберем как без обратного канала умудрялись обеспечить связь по надежности превосходящую мобильный телефон?

What is so interesting about pagers (beepers) and in particular, this Motorola Bravo? :blobcatnerd:
Few decades ago kids like myself watched movies with businessmen and hospital doctors running around with pagers such as this and dreamt having similar tech in our pickets. But the best we could do was to have a basic alarm clock shaped exactly like Motorola Bravo - marketplaces were full of them :blobcatbaguettehero:

Ich bin immer noch am Überlegen, ob Beeper als Gesamtpaket oder Matrix mit seinen einzelnen Bridges für eine Managed-Hosting-Lösung der richtige Weg ist, um eine relativ selbstbestimmte digitale Souveränität in Sachen Messenger zu erreichen? 🤔😅
Andererseits habe ich mich daran gewöhnt, die Ruhe und Stille zu genießen, welche sich einstellte, nachdem ich alle Mainstream-Messenger -Apps von meinem Telefon gelöscht hatte. 😁

I'm still wrapping my head around about the decision if Beeper as a whole Package or Matrix with it's single bridges as managed hosting solution is the way for me to go, into a relatively self controlled digital sovereignty in terms of messenger? 🤔😅
On the other hand, I really got used to enjoy the quiet and silence that occurred after deleting every mainstream messenger app from my phone. 😁

“The messaging app supports #WhatsApp, #Instagram, #Messenger, #X, #Telegram, #Signal, #Matrix, #Slack, #GoogleChat, #Discord, #LinkedIn, and #GoogleMessages (SMS/RCS). On Mac computers only, #Beeper can also connect users with their #iMessage chats. […] The app previously first connected with Beeper Cloud before communicating with the messaging network, said Beeper CEO Kishan Bagaria. While that system remains the default, users will now have the option of switching to Beeper on device, which will see the app connecting directly to the messaging network and skipping the middleman. ‘That ensures that end-to-end encryption is preserved and your #privacy is as good as the official app,’ Bagaria told TechCrunch in an interview ahead of the app’s relaunch. […] At some later point, Beeper Cloud will be deprecated once the company is sure the on-device model is capable of being everyone’s daily driver.”

I had a fantastic experiance last week using #claude (#claude_code specifically) to generate a script that helps me install #appimages on my #Fedora desktop. Appimages are these weird files that don't seem to play nicely with the package managers we know and love. They require manually moving to a directory and then creating a .desktop file so that your launcher (#rofi in my case) can find it.
The resulting script here: https://github.com/vitallish/dotfiles/blob/main/.config/scripts/install_appimage
Seems to work with #Beeper!

NGL As an early adopter I've gone through the full hype cycle with #Beeper messaging on #Android (*ahem iMessage*) but ever since it was acquired by @photomatt it's been firing on all cylinders and has become my default #chat app on desktop and mobile. It's like a modern day #Trillian or #Adium for #RCS, #SMS, #Whatsapp, #Signal, #Messenger, and more. Keep up the great work!

Google Should Push RCS Texting Further Than Just the iPhone
"Beeper supports RCS in its third-party texting app, which relaunched on Android following its attempts to integrate with Apple's iMessage. But Beeper had to reverse-engineer its way into integrating with Google Messages in order to make that happen. For now, it appears that Google isn't going after Beeper in the same way that Apple did when shutting off its iMessage integration."

WordPress parent company Automattic buys universal chat app Beeper (which is finally out of beta)
Beeper is a “universal” chat application designed to let you communicate not only with other Beeper users, but with folks who are using other chat platforms including SMS, RCS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Slack, Signal, Telegram, Google Chat, Discord, and IRC, just to name a few.
First launched as an invite-only beta in 2021, Beeper has been in the […] -
📱💬 iMessage vs. Beeper: The Ultimate Messaging Showdown! 🤔 Which platform reigns supreme? Find out in our latest blog post!

#iMessage #Beeper #MessagingDominance #TechWars -
In a message to Eric Migicovsky (CEO of Beeper, a 3rd party iMessage service), a 16 year old developer claimed that he reverse engineered Apple iMessage.
Astounded by the claim, the Beeper team looked into the claim & his prototype to find that it actually worked. They were able to register the Android device as if it's an iPhone and was able to send/receive messages as if nothing is amiss.
After months of work, Beeper is now releasing the Beeper Mini app which allows an Android device directly send/receive iMessage with Apple's servers without the use of relay servers. At launch, the app will cost US$2/month.
While something like this is a novelty outside of the US. For a market like the US while iMessage dominates, this can be a game changer (assuming it doesn't get legally shut down by Apple).

Beeper, the universal chat and messenger app for 15 services, is now free to use

I did a post about this app in Sep 2022 at #^https://gadgeteer.co.za/beeper-lets-you-use-imessage-on-android-and-windows-without-any-apple-device-but-it-comes-at-a-price/ as it was using quite an innovative way to achieve iMessage use on Android without requiring a Macbook.
It appears that the app has been growing steadily and now integrates numerous different chat services apart from just the commonly used big ones. They have even been rolling out some features that have not gone live on the parent services. There is also now forwarding between services as well as scheduling of messages, voice notes and more.
It runs cross-platform on desktop, Android, iPhone, Android Auto, Chrome OS, and even notifies via a Pebble watch. Chat services connected appear to be Whatsapp, Telegram, Slack, Twitter (X), Instagram, Discord, LinkedIn, IRC (yes really!), Matrix, Facebook Messenger, iMessage, Android SMS, Signal, and Google Chat.
All Beeper chat messages are end-to-end encrypted. Messages sent using Beeper to other chat networks are re-encrypted if the other network supports encryption (like Signal, WhatsApp and iMessage). So yes, you won't be having true E2EE all the way on those services, but a lot depends on what you're actually saying I suppose. There is however full E2EE between any other Beeper users and to Matrix users. They do state though they have zero-access to the contents of messages, so if you lose access to all your devices and your Recovery Code, they will not be able to recover your chat history (the way it should be). Their servers are located in Europe.
They built Beeper on the open source chat protocol Matrix, using its bridges functionality. Unlike other chat networks, there is no lock-in. You’re free to use open source Matrix clients to connect to Beeper, or download your data and move to a different Matrix server and continue chatting with your friends on Beeper.
For those who prefer not to use their default web service that they offer, it is possible to self-host the majority of the Beeper backend yourself. They open sourced all their bridges.
This is what they explain about how they transitioned to going free: "Later this year, we will launch an optional paid subscription, called Beeper Plus, which includes additional features like larger chat history backup, access to multiple network connections, and more. By making Beeper free, more people will feel comfortable sharing it with their friends, enabling more people to start using Beeper. Through the optional paid subscription, we will earn enough money to run the app. Currently, everyone who signs up for Beeper will enjoy a free trial of some features that will be part of Beeper Plus."
I'm thinking that I will now give this a try. I'd like to see how it works, or not, with iMessages (as I no longer have an iPhone) and with Whatsapp/Facebook (as I have no accounts with these services, so maybe this won't work).
See Beeper — All your chats in one app. Yes, really.A single app to chat on iMessage, WhatsApp, and 13 other chat networks. You can search, snooze, or archive messages. And with a unified inbox, you’ll never miss a message again.
