Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I did a few.months ago. Quite a mess, but got it to work at the end of the day.
My experience is described here https://wiki.gardiol.org/doku.php?id=services%3Asynapse
Did you try the mautrix/whatsapp bridge? I had that working a while ago on an earlier synapse instance, but it was a right pain in the ass to set up and you still needed to authenticate it with a phone every couple weeks. It looks like it is being maintained so it might be easier.
I got put off by how complex that was and that you need to do exactly what you described. So no, I didn't.
I managed telegram tough, and still that was not the most pleasant experience.
