Automattic has added Beeper to their project roster that includes Wordpress, WooCommerce, Penpot and more.
As an open source project based on Matrix, with packages available for Linux… I think this ensures the future for a viable messaging app on our platform of choice.
This will further augment the use of Matrix, which may not be the best protocol for the job as others have commented in the past, but it’s better than proprietary alternatives, and a great starting point.

That link has an editorialized title linking to an article that says nothing about source code licenses. Maybe you mean Texts is closed source and that by merging, Beeper too will be closed down?
Check their github. The app source code is not available. Its literally a closed source project.
the client only, you can selfhost the bridges and use an opensource matrix client with them
The client is where the client side encryption happens. Its literally the only part that MUST be Foss.
