Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I've already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn't work.

What messangers do you guys/gals recommend?

I'm liking these forks! I didn't realize how much I hate the orange theme Simple uses; the change to green alone made the apps installable, for me.
