ok, i get that android users want to use iMessage, but that seems fundamentally incompatible (or at least paradoxical) with the constant Apple-hate and closed-source-hate that is rampant here and with android users in general.

I don't want to use iMessage but I'm almost tired enough of 12 kb pictures and insanely poor quality videos from iPhones to try it.

A big part of the problem is that no other options for SMS/MMS even exist on iOS, so all those communications default to iMessage (and it's fairly terrible at some of it.)
