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?

Sure, but that isn't the issue that's being discussed. Unless I'm reading this whole thing wrong, this has more to do with people excluding others, WHOLLY, because they don't have an iPhone.

    The op is conflating two different things weirdly.

    I totally understand wanting to move the conversation to a different platform or format.

    The last line about it being a friendship dealbreaker is weird though.
