Samsung is retiring it’s messages app, and I don’t want to install Google messages to replace it.
What apps are you using instead and what do you like or hate about them?
Edit: thank you for the suggestions :) This is more options than I was expecting!
Quik is the one I use. It has a nice design to it https://github.com/quik-sms/quik
The Fossify suite has a messages app. Available on Fdroid. No internet access, no trackers.
It’s not as polished visually as the mainstream apps but works absolutely fine.
Another for QUIK. I hate SMS, but QUIK is great.
I also use QUIK and love all its features, most especially the minimal and very customizable UI
Can confirm! The newest fork of Quik has really improved the app! People reliably see my messages like they did on the Google Messages app.
