Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple

Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps... like Apple’s own iMessage.

Hangouts was so close to perfect before they blew it all up.

Now I'm using a mix of Chat and Voice and it's terrible for everyone. Voice doesn't even support RCS from what I can tell, and all my messages with iPhone users are full of reactions. It's so annoying. I've had the same Google Voice number for over a decade, why is this so frustrating?

Voice is soooo frustrating. It had so much promise! But they haven't added anything to it in what 5 years? Maybe longer

tbh I don't know that I would remind anyone at Google that Voice exists, I think that's just about the only thing that is keeping it alive.
