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!

Fossify messages. Not the most feature filled app, does only the basics but because I don't use SMS as my main communication method it is more enough to receive the odd 2FA text
