    There’s no way that we can have a mainstream alternative to imessage if we keep declaring a new app or protocol the new best one every two years.

      All Google needs to do is make a public RCS API. Then we will have all the important features iMessage has on Android via regular texting. I have no fucking clue why they are making RCS exclusive to their messaging app.

      I think have settled into what they know.

      I think that iMessage is only prevelant in North America. Here in Europe (Portugal, at least), everyone uses Whatsapp.
