I don't want iMessage for Android – I just want everyone to use good messaging apps

iMessage for Android is only a cool idea because of the ridiculous attitude that's developed around the service, when other apps exist.

    We don’t use Signal for SMS, we use Signal for E2E encryption. Signal for SMS is useless.

    I’ve basically started telling people to either message me on Signal or I likely won’t respond in a timely manner, if ever. Not my problem. Urgent? Better call.

    Dick move? Maybe. But fuck SMS and fuck iMessage.

      Nah, that’s like saying “I won’t respond to a fax in a timely manner”.
      SMS is dated/dying/dead
