The culture war is v stupid, yes. But "use signal" is the same as "dont text your friend with a different app at all" with signal dropping sms. They are in a different position that google and apple, so not saying i blame them for dropping, but i did stop using it once it become "another app" instead of how i text.
You should not use SMS for anything. If they actually supported encrypting SMS, it may have had a sense for situationd with no internet.
But SMS is so incredibly insecure and unprivate, that they didnt want to mix it in with their secure messenger.
Having an app also being an SMS app makes no sense as you shouldnt use SMS. But I like Deku SMS which allows encrypting SMS.
