Last time I tried to introducing my family to an alternate messaging that wasn’t the default app on their phone I started getting messages in both places with no rhyme or reason to why they would use one over the other.
Yeah I thought RCS was going to be this platform-agnostic service à la SMS.
well in fact it is, but noone except I believe T-Mobile in the US and Samsung actually did it; everyone else just uses Google’s implemention because it’s a ready product and works great. well, except Apple, who doesn’t do it for their own bullshit reasons
Samsung on AT&T used the carrier implementation of it at least on the S22, which is broke AF. They announced they will be moving to Jibe from Google, but no time line is available AFAIK. Until then we are stuck with a broken RCS implementation.

I’m trying out matrix with my close family and it’s working great. Bonus points it doesn’t require a phone number or even a phone at all.

Hmm… Like this? “Don’t worry Honey, I won’t tell anyone about the porn I found on your computer. Just be safe and know real women can’t do that.”
