My work uses a whole lot of group texts. I don’t know why they don’t use something like Signal or whatever…it is what it is.

But every Google Message alternative I’ve tried sends my replies to every member of the group individually rather than replying IN the group chat itself. Is that an issue with the app itself, or in the settings, or something else entirely.

I want to move away from anything that is linked in any way to stupid Gemini. But this is the last thing keeping me using Google’s built-in Messages app.
