@JailbreakerVC @randomfrankp @GioakG @Casey Busted. Also, does everyone not know you can still send and reciece regular texts to/from iMessage users phones?
Even the imaginary "limousine liberal" problem isn't real.

Opportunity: Apple should create iMessage+ and sell it for $9.99/month. Android and Windows access to iMessage. What say you, @profgalloway? #walledgarden #teardownthesewalls #apple #android

@_Bethesdad @MattSmitty_ @Casey This is an issue on Apple's end actually, as they refuse to support RCS. RCS is a replacement for the outdated SMS with every feature that iMessage has.

@AbrahamJSB @justchilliando @iupdate Its the default messaging app on Android, harnessing RCS.
The benefit? Apple could integrate RCS into iMessage no problem and we'd finally have a worldwide messaging solution, but Apple doesn't want to do that as it will be one less reason to stay on Apple's ecosystem.

@ReginaldShoe42 @AnnTony144 @Casey It's a small inconvenience with the images and photos. But I believe Apple had fixed this issue with the new update. I prefer the Google Phones to iphone, I also do not miss iMessage. We can do the same type messaging with other Android devices!

@sondesix people worrying about no imessage on android is such a first world problem IMHO. Here in the philippines, where most people are on android, they rely mostly on SMS to the point that even iphone users stick to SMS. Data is so expensive here we barely ever use it for imessage

@Casey Tbh don't leave Apple if iMessage and Facetime is that important to you.
That's kind of the issue with Apple having +50% of market share in the US (and ~90% of teenagers) and alienating the Android folks. I try not to get too attached for this reason but I don't blame ya if u do

When we had our firstborn, my wife almost by instinct opened a whatsapp group for sharing photos.
I immediately shot that thing down, and opened an iMessage group instead.
For 1 reason only : Live Photos!

@cwlcymro Yup. I’m cautiously optimistic that Apple will adopt RCS (because let’s be honest—there’s no way they’re releasing iMessage for Android) and that will at least fix some of the issues.

@Casey Ultimately this is an Apple issue. They're the reason why iMessage and FaceTime are available for Android. They're purposely making it an inconvenience to keep people in their ecosystem.

@iJonniM @SkylledDev FB Messenger is really good but I think people have lost faith in Facebook. Unfortunately Whatsapp is also a part of them & we see the rise of Telegram & Signal. But again, fragmentation. The biggest issue why there is no iMessage alternative. Spoilt for choice.

Whether you want to use Android or iOS is a personal choice that comes down to a functionality vs ecosystem preference. But if you're one of those people who refuses to use any other messaging app besides iMessage, just know you're part of the problem

@NexusBen You’re a terrible person for liking iMessage? Jesus, bro. Turn down the drama. He said nothing about ignoring anyone. When you have something good going with an unmatched messaging app like iMessage, there’s no point going backwards and convincing others to do so.

@MikeIsaac @PatrickMcGee_ I would say that’s part court case and part sniping at Apple. iCloud backups - including your iMessages! - are still not E2E, and then the CSAM client side scanning has compounded the issue further. I think WhatsApp has come out publicly saying they won’t do client side scans.

Some people seem to think that features and cross-platform funtionality = reliability. WhatsApp even went down a few days ago ffs.

@MonsieurBidule @Casey This is actually a problem, my best man and sister made a group chat to communicate times to the cousins for my wedding. Well they forgot to add me, but they couldn't add me later because they created it with iMessage and included android users so no one else could be added.

@matmatboi @GioakG @sdw @Casey The problem isn't really "downloading the app," it's more so that the alternatives don't offer enough value to North American users to counteract the convenience of iMessage and other optimized Apple services. Especially not with the majority of the market being on iPhone.

@Casey Easy. Anybody worth a damn will not care if you use something other than iMessage. If somebody has a problem with you using an Android phone that they refuse to contact you, you got bigger problems than what phone you are using.
