I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

      I mean…I just assume everyone is an idiot in general until proven otherwise, no need to discriminate.

      I prefer android’s ability to customize my phone to the point that I can break it, but I respect apples security and can see why some people would prioritize that
