Signal is the way to go. No need to expose metadata to your mobile carrier via RCS. Also, currently you need Google's proprietary garbage message app to make use of RCS. There's litterally no reason to do this.
I personally had a very bad experience with signal and I don't think I'll be using it again. Also now that they cut SMS support I think they only way I'd use it again is if an overwhelming amount of people start using it.
