    We’re literally on a platform designed to escape these closed ecosystems and walled gardens. A platform built around open communication standards.

    And still there’s a downright bizarre contingent of people around here that seem to be chomping at the bit to defend or downplay Apple’s iMessage shit.

      That’s funny when most of the comments are saying “just use WhatsApp” as if that’s not a walled garden for messaging.

      I’ve found the complete opposite on here. Outside of the apple communities but even those get trolled/downvoted from nerds browsing all like everything else.

        Yes, but no. RCS itself is. Google RCS however, not especially. Google keeps promising to open up the bits they’ve tacked on but have yet to. Which includes things like the open end-to-end encryption. Apple will be implementing vanilla RCS which does not have that yet. But they have claimed if I remember correctly that they are going to help develop that. I don’t know if I believe that or if that’s just something they said to foster some false Goodwill

          It’s relevant though. Attack their argument if you think it’s bad, but don’t say they were being off topic, because they were not.
