    Americans seem to be the only ones who get irritated over the colour of the bubbles. Get over it or attend rehab.

      The color of the bubble isn’t the problem. iMessage uses a green bubble as a indicator that your iMessages are being sent as SMS, which is an old, terrible standard.

      Imagine if 90% of people used WhatsApp/Discord but 10% of people are using the default messaging app on their phone. Those 10% of people are causing you to have shitty video/picture messaging. No typing indicators. No read receipts. No delivery confirmation. No in-line replies. Now imagine if you’re in a group chat with several people, but that ONE person causes ALL of you to have those limitations. The group would be pissed off at that one person. That’s blue bubble/green bubble bullying.

        Exactly! I wish people understand it’s not the color itself; it’s what the color represents.
