Feel free to use the open standard but don't be iMessage.
I'm a long time beeper user. It's been nice to sign up with my email, and at least be in a few of the iPhone only chats.
When I saw Eric's post the other day, my first thought was 'what an arrogant dumbass.' My guess was that they though they have an anti trust case, and my guess is that apple may have thought the same, and so they enabled 'iMessage' access to RCS.
This was so predictable, especially after the RCS announcement, that I messaged my group threads and said they'd be borked by the end of the week, please switch back to signal.
So, I think I'll ride that train until RCS is a thing and be done with beeper. I honestly think they just shot themselves in the foot.
