I'm slowly ditching Google lately. Always on the lookout for better options, so lemme know what you're using! 👌
Even if it’s not the best, it’s still better than Meta. Signal is better for privacy but is missing some features (not as powerful group chats, folders only on Android and only client side, no pinned messages, no polls - though if one answer is enough you can use reactions). Matrix is pretty good for that kind of thing.
