Weekend achievements: 1) spin a private #matrix instance on Synapse, 2) get Telegram bot working, 3) get WhatsApp bot workig. This way I can get rid of both #telegram and #whatsapp [*] apps from my #android device.
On the screenshot - Matrix chat client with a number of private WhatsApp chats open and a number of Telegram groups I'm subscribed to.

[*] with WhatsApp you can't really completely get rid of it because they actively ban independent client implementations so the bot uses WhatsApp Web, which in turn needs a running WhatsApp on Android. It can be an emulator (memory & disk hog) or a spare phone that sits at home connected to WiFi 24/7 just to do the bridging.
