They killed SMS support? Maybe not in Germany as an exception, I still use Google messages to recive spam SMS.

Signal killed sms

Oh yeah sorry, I'm really stupid early in the morning. I read something else in this thread about Google Messages and just assumed it was related. I didn't even know Signal had SMS support, that honestly sounds like a good feature

Nah, the comment was referencing signal from two layers up in the conversation, when Google messages was only one layer up.

For me, the whole reason I switched to Signal was because it would do both encrypted and SMS. Then they repeatedly made terrible decision after terrible decision and when they dropped SMS I had zero reason to keep using it. I don't like that Google messages is run by Google, but at least I don't have yet another messaging app to deal with.
