I feel you. My Nokia N900 and later N9 were great solutions. All my sms, aim, icq, msn etc was all seamless along with instant load time. Then came things like line, FB messenger, Whatsapp. It was just how to have everything in one place.

RCS is probably the best option at this point if Imessage could use it. Then i wouldn't need other apps for those friends to get decent quality.

Sad to learn signal wasn't the standalone service I thought it was. I might sound old but really don't care about sticker packs. I do care about quality shares without another app.
