I’m also confused by this.

Also, why people think that people need to be convinced to use iMessage. I just tell people to text me and give them my number. If they have an iPhone, great. We can play SeaBattle! If not, then I guess our messages won’t be encrypted and we won’t be doing anything illegal together. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just a bunch of people in here trying to justify why they’re upset that other people don’t want to do things the same way they do.

I would prefer that iMessage fall back to RCS rather than SMS, but whatever. Apparently that’s coming and I’m not downloading another app to message one person. Especially not one owned by Facebook.
