Uh. It's not that. Along w that is videos w potato quality, messages that never make it. Of course anyone reading your comment knows you missed the point.

Yeah.

Because Apple has a proprietary messaging format. They won't adopt the standard the rest of the world uses or open theirs up for others to use.

They uh… are going to support rcs very soon so…

Doesn't change that it's shitty now and has been for years.

They don't get credit for the EU pressuring them to be less shitty.

Yeah, I get that I wish they had done rcs earlier or whatever. Like I get not opening iMessage up, but at least support the best standard out there would be nice. MMS and sms are garbo
