Received a link by #sms
Well, that's what I like about #QUIK #messages: the #app warns you that the link might be unsafe, and asks you if you want to open it in your #browser.

Update: I'm not sure what happened, but Messages just tossed a bunch of my recent SMS messages. People were telling me they were texting me, and I wasn't getting anything. I went back to QUIK, and I can see that I received a bunch of messages, but they're all blank. YEOUCH. Bad. D:

Just a quick FYI to my #FOSS #Android / #AOSP / #Lineage friends,

There's a new fork of #QKSMS / #QUIK called Messages:

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.prauga.messages/

Seems really nice.

SMS messages from automated senders are frequently not arriving on my FOSS messaging apps on Android.

Testing now but so far Google's "Messages" app seems to be working.

Android apps failing are QUIK and "Messages" by Fossify.

Failing are SMS from DiDi "rideshare", a large bank and a health appointment reminder/confirmation service.

#QUIK SMS is kinda perfect now, but there's one leeeeeeetle feature I do occasionally miss from the proprietary SMS program I was using:

It did a best-effort attempt to interpret those idiotic "Liked 'I am the very model of a modern major general...'" messages you get from iPhones and would just stick an emoji next to the associated message, rather than display the completely pointless message.

Of course, it couldn't do it for photos, only for text. And I'm guessing if there was more than one message in the chat that had almost the same text (such that the quoted part would be non-unique), it probably would've failed there, too.

So, minor sad on that one, but QUIK is actually better in a lot of ways, such as its ability to archive/hide messages (conversation) you're done with without deleting them.

That of course means that I could theoretically practice #InboxZero with my text messages.

Someday, guys. Someday. XD

#PSA: the #QUIK #SMS [app] has been updated, and it's way better than before.

I used to have problems with it because the pictures it sent via #MMS were of far poorer quality than the other programs I tried (including the #AOSP default Messaging app), but they seem to have fixed that.

They also have added a nice big button to trigger your phone's native dictation service (you can turn that off if you don't want it, or don't have one).

It has successfully replaced the proprietary SMS program I was using before, which makes me quite glad.

Ça faisait longtemps que j'utilisais #SilenceIM pour lire/envoyer des #SMS sur #Android, alors que l'application n'est plus mise à jour depuis des années (avec des trucs amusants comme la copie intégrale des messages quand quelqu'un met une réaction émoji dessus 😁) et que le nombre de personnes avec qui j'ai échangé des SMS chiffrés se comptent sur les doigts d'une main. Maintenant, les notifications ne fonctionnent plus donc je cherche une alternative #logicielLibre #viePrivée, si possible avec #chiffrement.
J'ai vu #FossifySMS, #QUIK et #DekuSMS (tous sur #Fdroid).
Vous avez des #avis / #conseils / #suggestions pour m'aider ?
