Fossify Messenger vs. QKSMS (lemmy.ml)

Hi. I wanted to replace my stock SMS app and was wondering which app is likely more suitable for use. Fossify is receiving more development and is more light weight yet most people that I've seen recommend QKSMS as it has more features. Any opinions? Thanks.

QKSMS has less active development but I don't think that's an issue as it works well as is. I haven't dug too deeply into the more advanced stuff but I've yet to have any issues with it.

I've been using Partisan-SMS

Partisan-SMS was abandoned. If I remember correctly (hope not saying something false), devs explain why they pull out of the project on github. I cant find where they said it, but: https://github.com/moezbhatti/qksms/issues/1970#issuecomment-1763438102

Unfortunate, are there any forks being maintained? I love QKSMS's UI
