Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I’ve already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn’t work.
What messangers do you guys/gals recommend?

Yeah, qksms’s handling of group messages is really klunky, too.
Deku SMS looks nice, but it doesn’t understand group SNS at all. Neither does Connect You (it also doesn’t have search-by-name for texts, and has trouble linking contacts to texts). Simple SMS is now verboten.
Despite warts, I’m stuck with qksms as well.
Edit Fossify Messages has been released on fdroid. It supports groups, looks nice, and is working for me so far!
The Simple Mobile Tools are being forked at Fossify.
Messages doesn’t have a release yet, but keep an eye on it for now.
I’m liking these forks! I didn’t realize how much I hate the orange theme Simple uses; the change to green alone made the apps installable, for me.

Gave it a try, its really buggy but after few patches it should be fine.

Nice. Didn’t see it while I was checking.
Not to also mention that the dev for qksms hasn’t fixed some issues from 2017.
