Looking for an SMS app thats better than the trash i have preloaded

I have an SMS Texting app preloaded on my phone (like all phones do). And I somehow still use SMS a lot. I hate how shitty it is.
Any replacements you g/u/rls can give me?
Anything that works will do, customization is a welcome bonus

Textra is one heck of a good-looking one, if you prefer a more open app then QKSMS is hard to beat.

Silence is what I'm using, even if you don't use the encryption it's got a dark mode and stuff

I'd just use signal unless you need something else. It's the most widespread and simple encrypted one i think, and even if you don't really need privacy fuck mass surveillance etc...

>>567663 Signal does SMS? I thought it's just a encryption focused client for a closed xmpp network.

>>567670 it does do sms, automatically for numbers that aren't associated with signal

>>567868 it was useable, the send messages over data thing they are/were trying is good but it needs to be more widely accepted, lack of dark mode is hard though I think they might have that now

I cant remember the last time I sent an SMS. I do receive a fuckload of those from my provider and its associates, but messaging apps that use a fraction of your data to chat for free are everywhere. Still, thanks for the recommendations, g/u/rls, this is interesting.
