In my journey to self hosting and Degoogling, one thing I’ve missed is being able to access my phone on a computer. Is there a self hosted solution that allows syncing between text messaging and a PC/web interface?

I don’t necessarily need a sophisticated Features like customer management or automation. I just want to access my messages from another device, and of course have a server based backup. The ability to reply to messages from the computer is a plus but not necessary. Is there a good option for this?

    probably because FOSS devs think SMS needs to die, and I agree

    Be that as it may, people send 23 billion text messages every day. If you’re at all involved with the public, it’s absolutely unavoidable.

      But, no Foss dev wants to do anything about it because SMS sucks balls.

      So regardless of how many.messages are sent FOSS devs aren’t interested.
