people have read receipts on in 2024?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago

Yeah I want people to get the message without having to send one.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago

I said this elsewhere, but yes.

I intentionally do this as a commitment mechanism. I understand that they will be told as soon as I open it, so I don’t until I’m prepared to respond.

Only for my SO

Turn off your read receipts.

Problem solved.

I knew where that link was going before I clicked it and I like what you did there.

Sounds like an iPhone problem to me hehehe

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

iPhones don’t require read receipts to be turned on.

As someone who leaves notifications to deal with later and will forget if I open it, this was relatable

I didn't even think of read receipts...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

If only there was a way to turn those off

Sidenote, Anthony Hopkins as Tom Hiddleston delivering that "Oh shit" was so fucking hilarious. Perfectly executed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Fuck, I genuinely forgot that wasn't Tom Hiddleston until you said that. I was just like "no no Tom Hiddleston is just pretending to be Anthony Hopkins, it's magic, you see..."

In conclusion, you're very right, and I'm an idiot who gets too immersed lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Naw naw that's just the magic of Sir Anthony Hopkins, absolutely acceptable to fall for his sorcery.

Can't accidentally send read receipts when Verizon won't let you activate RCS because you have an unlocked phone...
(But seriously, if anyone knows how to get RCS working on an unlocked Galaxy S22 Ultra on Verizon using Samsung's messaging, please let me know)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Idk try Google messages app. I switched years ago, RCS wouldn't work properly for me in the Samsung one.
