@privacy Should I use my carrier messages app?
My network provider namely reliance jio also built an messaging app for Android. It have defiantly sms, mms support, and also RCS, organiser, etc.
So should I use it or not?
Asking as if I am not wrong all the sms info go by their server so they already know everything.
What else will they get from me if I use their app?

First, try to use SMS/MMS the least time. Second, do not use RCS, it’s controlled by Google. And third, use something like SimpleX, Signal or even Session 😄

@foremanguy92_ I use matrix but not whole world does so. SMS and Now RCS will be easier way, cause everybody have it.
I have my parents and family and friends on good platforms but using SMS etc for strangers.
