Literally nobody is hung up on bubble colours other than you and iPhone users… Most people don’t give a shit, and the added benefits of RCS basically bring it up to spec with a typical messenger, and since it’s pre-installed it means that you don’t need to worry about messenger app segregation. You don’t even need to create an account.
Sure.
Absolutely untrue. Not only do the handful of American Android users cry about that all the time, even Google cried about iMessage: https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/8/23951935/google-european-telcos-apple-imessage-digital-markets-act-core-platform-service-gatekeeper-lobbying
People make accounts all the time. With Google’s RCS, they have an account on Google’s servers.
From the point of view of an Android user, iMessage falls back to SMS/MMS protocols, so when an iPhone user would click the heart reaction button in iMessage, you’d get a text message that says “Flig Fligerson loves your message.”
Instead of pushing a client to other platforms, they deliberately just made the experience shit. I really don’t see the appeal in Apple products.
Do they though? I had a feeling that RCS works through the carrier, that’s why a carrier needs to support RCS for it to work.
That what happens when you discuss based on feelings and not knowledge. https://support.google.com/messages/answer/9487020

This is why I asked: to learn. Thanks for the link!
A small handful of iOS users might complain about iOS, but a majority of us don’t give a shit and can’t understand why anybody would brag about having an inferior OS.
And sure people make accounts all the time, but if doesn’t mean they enjoy doing it. I doubt most people enjoy having to flip between messenger, signal, telegram, and WhatsApp - and RCS fixes most of that since everybody has access to it, and SMS is still a main go-to for messaging in north America anyway.
Any more stupid takes to share with us?
