I have no need. iMessage is good enough, I don't talk about anything illicit, I am not planning crimes.

Signal is still great for cross-platform rich messaging, sending photos and videos with good quality (unlike with SMS), as well as voice and video calls. It also has fantastic desktop apps, similar to how you can use iMessage on your Mac, but Signal works on Linux and Windows as well. And you don't need to be a criminal to care about your privacy.
