About Matrix Matrix is an open protocol for decentralised, secure communications.

Matrix Manifesto We believe:

People should have full control over their own communication. People should not be locked into centralised communication silos, but instead be free to pick who they choose to host their communication without limiting who they can reach. The ability to converse securely and privately is a basic human right. Communication should be available to everyone as a free and open, unencumbered, standard and global network.

Where would be a good starting point to check out a list of instances with these bridges? And how safe are they?

this is why I never got into matrix. I don't actually know how lol, the page doesn't list servers available and i don't really want to just spin up my own just for myself

Beeper is a paid Matrix server that neatly integrates with many other chat services using a custom GUI specifically designed for integration with third party apps.
