It still has issues, but it's much better than SMS, which is currently the only option for messaging between Android and iOS.

only option for messaging between Android and iOS.

Well aside from like all the messaging apps, right?

[–] LinuxSBC@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Sorry, I meant "the only built-in option for messaging between Android and iOS." A lot of people don't want to install any third-party messaging apps.

All the not interconnected apps yes.

I think both things are valid. Apple should adopt RCS, but also that standard should be further pushed to include better features and not just stagnate

[–] June@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m willing to bet Apple will adopt RCS as soon as it can be implemented seamlessly.

Never. The epic court case has evidence showing Apple views iMessage as a moat to hold their users hostage.
