I'll just continue to use my old strategy of not voluntarily communicating with people who care about what color my text bubble is.

At this stage in the game, isn't that basically the only difference?

I've never understood how this became an issue of shaming and exclusion.

Literally just star bellied sneetches.

It's not the only difference. It indicates the difference in experience parties receive. Higher quality pictures & video, E2E encryption are some of the differences. I'm not shamed for being on android but I can't have the same quality conversations without convincing lots of people to use something like signal (which I do use with those I have convinced).

LOL. Thanks for the sneetches comparison!
