You’re correct, it is not a public API. In fact, just to see the specs, you need to be either an organization (or an indie developer) registered in the EU and have to sign a massive NDA just to get the documentation!

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
WhatsApp was originally built on, and still is, a forked version of XMPP. It is nothing like the matrix protocol.
We don’t think twice about doing what’s right, in fact we don’t think about it ever! If you lack ethics or morals, why not join ICE today?

rubbing some brain cells together.

Matrix. You can use your beeper account on one of the more fully featured matrix clients such as Element X
true. Also: not commenting is easier than commenting
Many people have had easy success with Firefox by spoofing a “Chrome on Windows” user agent; you can use an extension like this one to do so.
The bridges have always been open source. The clients were forked from element (which is open source) until recently when the Android app was rebuilt; the clients are not planned to be open source.
I understand the DMA interop thing quite well, and it is a private API. The matrix bridge does not use official interop as the Matrix foundation has given up on plans to do interop, as it requires geolocating (and then georestricting) their users.
The current, longstanding, matrix bridge requires you to have the WhatsApp app installed on your phone, with a working account.
