Before that, it was hangouts and regular people didn’t know about it.
This is their biggest problem, They themselves fragment their user base. We were on hangouts, you could even get your google voice calls on it, we didnt’ switch to allo or duo, till they announced they were retiring hangouts. And now all three are gone.
Hangouts was dope. With a Google voice number, you could also send text messages from your computer which was pretty novel for Android users at the time

We stay away from Google now.

It was novel for everyone at the time. Android had integrations with computers long before Apple did.
Samsung hardware and signal for texting have been perfect for me.
