It's nice to have a messaging option that isn't owned by a single company. Of course it will never succeed because Apple will never support it.

- WorldMaker 5y agoBut is RCS even technically that ("not owned by a single company") with Google's weird run around to also own most of the backend services? Standards are great, but fiefdom attempts pretending to be standards not so much. Nothing about RCS' architecture really sells that it is a better standard (or really much of a standard at all) compared to XMPP or Matrix (or IRC for that matter) especially when the vast part of the data plane is so complex there's only ever really been one vendor (Vibe/Google).
