Re:Upgrading Messaging on Android in the U.S. with RCS by abawany on Thursday November 14, 2019 @05:50PM (#21540382)
I tried a switch and the experience mostly went ok, for some funny reasons:

* Google apps (Calendar, Tasks, GBoard) really helped with the transition and were imo superior to the corresponding native apps

* Used Outlook for mail to ensure that I still got push notifications for imap accounts (vs. polling on the native Mail app)

* Used Resilio Sync to bring my ebooks over to the device vs. pfaffing about with cloud storage

* Was able to find good free apps for ssh and otp

* I appreciated the fact that incognito on Safari appears to have per-tab isolation

It took me a lot of struggling to get the device working as I wanted, so hopefully it helps you somewhat.
