Wait it isn't? Are you telling me all the SMS I have received were sent into the pitch black abyss?

SMS was supported back when I was on android, roughly a year ago, since it handled all of my texting (signal or standard) but it was already broken up in iOS at that point, and they were dropping support for SMS on android (announced October 2022).
I lost SMS support this spring, Signal posted about this in October 2022. I'm on Android and PC.
