I do not understand, why chat apps are in need for “social media” features to blow the clients up as fuck. Instead, they kill the SMS compatibility to include other crap.

Super frustrating they spent time developing these Stories rather than improving the UI so all users were aware if a message was encrypted or normal SMS...Why I ought!! 😤
