Use Silence. It’s been working for me all these years and still does. https://silence.im/
Interestingly enough, it’s at least as private as Signal. Actually, probably more so because not all messages go through a single central provider based in the Heart of the Empire.

Stop using SMS?
SMS works where internet does not.
There are many places where the data connection is either not available, or hideouly unreliable. In many rural areas, especially in poorer countries but also in wealthy ones, you can still have cell signal but no data, and SMS still works without data.
Let them eat cake.
