It still works

Yes and allowing beeper to MaInTheMiddle your messages does not present any security issues at all.

Their Matrix bridge is open source, and (at least they claim) everything is E2E encrypted. I love Beeper, and as unstable of a service as it is, it's still really great and I fully trust it with my messages. Waited 2 years for this service and I'm gonna use it lol.

It is end to bridge encrypted. I trust them too but I still prefer to self-host this stuff.

everything is E2E encrypted

not really. an E2E encrypted message is decrypted on their server, and then reencrypted before they sent it to the recipient.
