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.

iMessage is probably a USA issue, however everyone using WhatsApp is not a solution either.
It's a proprietary application controlled by Meta, we need an open standard so no Big Tech controls everyone's messages.
I didn't say "WhatsApp" once, so... Sure. That's what xmpp is for, or whatever is currently in vogue.
In any case, it doesn't involve smses.
Signal is the way to go.
