Looking for options to send SMS from Gnome desktop.

I've been using google's browser based app, but obviously would like to use something that is not google dependent.

I've tried gsconnect. I need to give it a good go but my initial findings are disappointing. If this is what others are doing then I'll stick with it.

I thought there would be some way to view the android ui from my phone, on my gnome desktop but that doesn't seem to be a thing.
