Btw whats the matter of blue bubble? iMessage? Who tf uses imessage especially on android? Or is it just an sms app?
Ironically you can use it on android using an app called…wait for it….BlueBubbles. -Source: me using it right now.
Bluebubbles requires you have a Mac or Hackintosh
Yes, there are hoops, but it works.
It's not the blue bubble, it's that iMessage is like any other of the big message services and has it's own things like those messaging services. I have a group chat with another iPhone user, and an Android user. Just sending texts is whatever, but when you start using the messaging features like tapbacks to like a message or replying to a specific message, it gets real fucky real fast.
Although I am glad iMessage was created (largely as a fuck you to carrier fees) these days I wish that Apple would either make an Android app or the world (US mostly) could collectively move to a good messaging app/protocol (which includes e2e encryption and isn't fucking Meta.)
That sounds like good messaging apps doesn't exist... Have you ever tried telegram?
