    If you’re trying to move from using only one messaging platform (SMS) to two (SMS+Signal), then I understand the friction. If you’re like me and you have five other messaging platforms anyway, then a sixth makes no difference. This has never bothered me, but it’s one of the reasons I have not moved my mother onto Signal — it’s added complexity that she’s not really going to understand.

    That said, I never enabled SMS in the Signal app and I wouldn’t even if it came back. RCS is available now, and until Android provides third-party app developers the ability to make RCS clients, it’s a dead end.
