I don't take advantage of Beeper nearly as much as I should, I saw that they give you a Matrix handle when you sign up which I think is cool.

    They give you a Matrix handle because everything is Matrix. The problem is Beeper is nothing to do with Beeper but exactly the kind of thing we saw with Apple: malice. They don't want you to use their apps this way, and for that reason, it just sucks to use. Plus you're lowering the privacy of whatever platform you're using to that of Matrix.
