Beeper (built on matrix) has convenient bridges to lots of services. You can use the hosted service or self-host (https://github.com/beeper/bridge-manager) or you can host plain matrix using https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/

"plain matrix" sounds a bit wrong - we put great effort into maintaining numerous of components of the playbook, including bridges, so it has a lot to offer. Alternatively, you can just get a managed server on https://etke.cc

I'm sorry, bad choice of words. I didn't mean to imply that it's worse in any way. I use it myself. Uncustomized? Vanilla? Upstream? IIRC Beeper has patched various things.
