What is a "blue bubble"?

  He's referring to imessage vs sms. People put weight into if you have an iPhone or not. If you're not a blue bubble, you're a lesser class in america (TO SOME PEOPLE).

    That sounds like a great way to avoid people I won't like. If someone will judge me because of the things I own or don't own, I don't want to associate with them either. In fact, I think this is a fantastic reason to avoid iPhones. I'm super excited about the Librem 5[1], and I'll be extra happy to be even that less desirable to these types of people. - [1] https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-5/ https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-5/

      It’s a very crude method. But it’s also very effective. We just bought a house and have been doing a lot of work on it. So I post a lot of stuff on Craigslist for free. Lots of green bubbles (Android users) respond. They are the flakiest fucking people I have ever dealt with. We’re talking comical levels of flakiness. Shit that belongs in a sitcom. Blue bubble people, on the other hand, respond quickly and show up when they say they will.
