Hi,

I run a private, non-federated Matrix server (synapse) that I use as a way to combine my messaging services into one app (Element). I’m currently using Google Voice with the Mautrix-gvoice bridge, but I am fully de-Googling.

What would be the process for connecting multiple JMP.chat numbers in via a bridge? I assume by using the XMPP bridge in some way.

I plan to still use the Cheogram app for calling.

Thanks.

    The Cheogram app? That is a Jabber app, speaking the XMPP protocol. So if you switch the account to go via a bridge to Matrix instead you wouldn’t even have an account for the app to log in to.

      Wait… So you can only be logged into JMP/Cheogram on one device? If that’s the case I’d definately need Matrix.

          First, thank you for entertaining my ignorance. But now I’m still a bit lost.

          Why can’t a bridge act like a Cheogram client? I.E. use Cheogram on my phone (XMPP/Jabber), and a Matrix bridge on another (XMPP)? What makes this different from two devices running Cheogram?

            Oh sure, if you wanted to puppet a Jabber ID from Matrix then I guess that would work to be able to still have a Jabber ID to log into.

            I’m not aware of any bridges that operate that way though.
