I just set it up today. The docker setup was pretty easy and I got the telegram and WhatsApp bridge running so I have all my messages in one place. Signal bridge is next.

Is anyone else doing this?

      Since Whatsapp added multi-client support this is AFAIK not needed anymore.

        How recent is this? When I had a bridge running it would bug me about WhatsApp having been offline for 12 days, and to re-connect before 14 days pass

          Not sure to be honest. I am going off the Slidge WhatsApp bridge for XMPP which AFAIK uses the same library as the Matrix bridge and Slidge definitely doesn’t need a phone connected.

            I used my matrix-whatsatpp bridge exclusively, but the bridge warned me that it would time out if my WhatsApp phone connection was inactive for more than two weeks. Maybe I should just try and see what happens anyway
