As someone who currently uses Pulse SMS+ and has been looking for alternatives like Google Messaging, are there any major issues I should be aware of?

I liked Pulse since I could send messages from a desktop app, but I can't install it on my work computer any longer.

I also liked the WearOS app from Pulse, but they discontinued it.

I moved to Google Messages when Signal dropped SMS support and it's been fine. Most people I know who aren't on Signal or WhatsApp are on iPhones, but there are a decent number who apparently have RCS so -- perversely -- Signal dropping SMS support had actually resulted in a net increase in my secure messaging.

Makes sense. Thanks
