Alot of my friends use Snapchat for messaging but it's really annoying needing to laggily enable the camera every time the app opens. Anyone know a way to make it think it has the camera on but not actually or something? (if you just revoke the camera permission it stops you from using the app entirely)

Can't you just use your normal SMS app?

Do you understand the reasoning for the removal?

Yes, but it's easier to sell Signal to tech illiterate family members if I tell them "It's a new text app that lets you talk with people with both Android and Iphone" instead of having them groan "Oh no it's another messaging app I have to install".
