I've been using it. It's decent and basic. The only enhancement is that it doesn't do anything annoying.

Honestly I wish more apps would have that enhancement

Same lol, I love them for this.

Simple, basic, does what it says it does, runs on shit hardware, doesn't rely on some kind of underlying meta-account that is connected to the rest of some corpo dragnet, with ever changing TOS.

There are lots of apps that don't do anything annoying but still have a modern UI and features.

That hasn't been my experience on the Play Store.

Who said anything about the Play Store?
