I use #Google Messages for #texting. It's not bad but its only solid features are the #spam blocking and the fact I can use it in a web browser. Oh, and #RCS (as questionable as that may be).

I'd really like to move away from it because, well....Google, but I haven't found a suitable replacement - either on Google Play or F-Droid.

Most #SMS apps are rather bare bones when it comes to features. I am looking for something better.

I am on my second try for Messages on F-Droid but it once again never finishes syncing messages. I deleted over 60 large old conversations and still it gets to about 2/3 done before restarting. I let it run overnight and it never finished.

Any recommendations?
