MODERATORS
RCS is not encrypted. At least the non-Google version isn't. I think Apple is working on that with the GSMA or whatever they're called.
So, Signal > iMessage > RCS > Telegram > WhatsApp > SMS
I think Samsung. But then you need a Samsung, which is its own problem.
Otherwise no, but there may be more soon since it's being adopted by Apple.
Signal is the only one that is open. However, Simplex Chat is better.
