Samsung is shutting down messages and pushing the use of Google’s messenger. Are there alternatives? I don’t want to give Google that much personal info to train its AI or to give the regime an avenue to getting my info.

    Literally the only gain is having one app instead of two.

    It’s also easier to convince others to use signal if there’s an added bonus: you’re already using it

        it’s easier to convince someone to use one app that allows them to continue to talk to other people than 2

        and the second one has no one else using it
