So how do you have group chats or send files with your non-Signal contacts?
Group chats work over SMS. I use cloud links for large files or just SMS/MMS for pictures and you just live with the low quality if texting with an iPhone user.
SMS doesn’t have group chats does it? Unless your client is just sending the same message to everyone and grouping together the responses?

More seriously, in these cases, I often rely on emails instead. But I don’t really use group chats a lot (even with my contacts that are on Signal), nor send many files, so it’s not features I really miss. And SMS works with everyone, so it’s always my default if the contact isn’t on Signal.
