    That is an interesting way of saying Apple is finally supporting an industry standard. By the way what is it with people pretending iMessage is the only messenger? There are many great cross platform options like signal and also some not so good options like WhatsApp. May just be Europe, but the last time I used SMS was in 2021. And I always have used iPhones.

      RCS still sucks. It’s a marginal improvement over MMS, and not more.

      Basically all the stuff people actually care about are proprietary Google features because they had to use proprietary extensions and send everything through their own servers to make it work.

      It’s really not different than iMessage. It’s no more open to any other messaging app or any other OS than iMessage is, and it isn’t really capable of being so unless the standard improves.
