    100% this. I found it very disappointing that in order to achieve their arbitrary security policy that they sacrificed SMS fallback

    I have no idea why it wasn’t just an option on setup or a configuration setting so that it defaults to encrypted messaging by default and then falls back to SMS for numbers that don’t support it (if enabled)

    From their statement back in the days it always felt like they could have found a way to make this work but simply didn’t want to

      Codebase weird complexity due to SMS being very weird, buggy standard. Main reason.
