The point you’re trying to make is correct on a technical level, not a functional one. Unfortunately we can’t will languages into behaving in ways we think is ideal simply by making pointless assertions in obscure forums.

Couldn’t agree more.

Do you have a source on this? Sounds like an interesting read.

At the very least, hopefully Apple will notice that there is enough of an appetite for iMessage on Android that people are getting innovative about it.

Sounds like an iOS problem for iOS users to deal with. If I have a family member with Android, we just agree on a chat service to use and iMessage isn’t even a part of that conversation. Older members who need help can get their stuff set up during a family visit, until which a few green bubbles won’t hurt anyone.

I will be surprised if the DLC isn’t paid this time around.

Not even remotely, but it does need one from Hello Games!

Why not just use a different chat app? I have like 3 installed to accommodate people from different regions.

Edit. The very next reply answered this. Sorry.

By taking excellently processed photographs and sharing them on social media. At least that’s what I’d do!

Huh. When I communicate with Android friends, I just don’t use iMessage to make sure communication is solid. That’s an Apple problem as far as I’m concerned, but good on Android users for finding a way to make things a little nicer for Apple users I guess.

This Android app fixes those issues? That’s actually really impressive!

I’ve been using iOS for 15-20 years and have never heard anyone talk about bubbles. In fact, everyone I know has a 3rd party client installed to ensure chatting acrosd platforms is easy. If someone is giving you crap about the color of a bubble you don’t actually see on Android, they probably just don’t like you and are using the bubble as an excuse. They’re not worth your time. (Or they’re just joking around.)

It’s just strange to me that Android users have such a need to fix a thing that only apple users notice, and only Apple fanboys might actually care about.
