What the actual fuck Google? They go and do something nice so I don't have to fuck with needing my phone all the time to text and they take this shit away.
Why does Google keep doing this shit and also what's a good alternative?

Signal doesn't look like it works with my carrier SMS.
I'm looking for an SMS replacement.

that's just completely wrong though
They are breaking down Hangouts so people move to Allo and Duo.

this makes me so happy, I only use my google voice # to text. Now I'll have a lot of clutter removed.
So if I have a google voice number what can I use to send and receive texts?

you can keep using hangouts, this only affects people using a carrier's number

I should have read the article instead of just the headline. Thanks
What is the point of signal if no one uses signal to talk to me?
Also did it just get a name change? I remember it being just Signal with a nice icon before on an older phone.

So stupid, so they're keeping the code within Hangouts to do SMS, but they're not letting you use that code if you use a carrier number. Typical Google, one step forward, two steps back.
