Lets at least realize that Apple could easily have a department that develops a broader iMessage app, or release an imessage api, that can be used outside of its apple products to reduce the purported discrimination against SMS messages.
There are certainly other ways to solve the UX as well that doesn't involve discrimination.
But ... they dont.
I'm postulating with this last one: they know exactly what they're doing.
- dane-pgp 5y ago> or release an imessage api This is an important point. Proposed legislation in the US and EU could this year mandate the sort of interoperability you are alluding to, and it would make much of this controversy moot. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/future-interoperability-not-big-tech-2021-review https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/future-interoperabilit...
