Plus Messenger is forcing users to be subscribed to their telegram group with a way to hide coming "soon." App it's dead and I'm looking for alternative. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Title. Everyone who called them out for this (including myself) were banned or muted a week. Likely they're going to be selling ad space which is why they're being aggressive about this. You can't even archive it which means this was on purpose. Forcing something down user's throat and saying "you'll eventually be allowed to hide it" is what I expect from Meta, EA or Microsoft.

What 3rd party app do you use? Plus Messenger is enshitified and I'm looking to get rid of it ASAP
