Do your chats look like this? Do you always forget which contacts use which apps? Do you wish there was a way to have all your chats in just one place?

In the following guide I'm going to show you how to use Matrix to achieve your dream of an all-in-one chat app, by using Matrix bridges and securing the connection with Cloudflare Tunnels.

And now do it without Cloudflare.

Surely it could be done with tailscale/headscale, or just a VPN connection? Unless I'm misunderstanding how the OP is using cloudflare tunnels

Yeah, I was wondering if the goal of the article (using bridges) is available without federation and having it open to the internet...

You can totally skip federation and you won't be able to use matrix users or join public rooms, but I guess it's something that some people don't need.
