Self hosted Twilio for blue bubbles

In plain words

Self Hosted Twilio for Blue Bubbles is an open-source alternative to Twilio that enables blue message bubbles in messaging apps on Apple devices. It is designed for users who want to self-host their messaging infrastructure rather than relying on third-party services. The project replaces commercial messaging gateways with a self-managed solution, giving users control over their own communication systems.

  Beeper Mini – iMessage client for Android2023 · beeper.com · ▲1,521

  Hi HN! I’m proud to share that we have built a real 3rd party iMessage client for Android. We did it by reverse engineering the iMessage protocol and encryption system. It's available to download today (no waitlist): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.beeper.ima and there's a technical writeup here: https://blog.beeper.com/p/how-beeper-mini-works. Unlike every other attempt to build an iMessage app for Android (including our first gen app), Beeper Mini does not use a Mac server relay in the cloud. The app connects directly to Apple…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
