- Beeper can be self-hosted if you have a Mac, so you don't have to trust their servers
- Sunbird's app (Nothing Chat) was riddled with its own security vulnerabilities that allowed users to read other users messages, which were all stored as unencrypted plaintext, all discovered by the community within 24 hours of launch
- Beeper is actually open about how their technology works and what it's limitations are, while Sunbird/Nothing basically lied about their product and never provided any meaningful documentation
