I’ve found that my circle of contacts use the default messaging app for group chats even more now. I couldn’t get them to use Signal but at least they’re posting in the RCS group chat more instead of on Meta platforms.

AFAIK there’s no free as in freedom implementation and only works with propriety apps and I read google messages refuses to use RCS on rooted/unofficial systems. So that’s a big no.

Another big problem is, people who don’t have mobile internet and unknowingly have it enabled (aka most people who still use SMS) won’t get the message until they connect to WiFi or some time passes.
