So, Google resolved the interop issue with "liked an image" and similar reactions back in 2020. I can't remember that being an issue for years with reasonably modern Android phones. Yeah, I've had some isues in the past with pixelated videos but again, almost zero in the past few years. But there are ten billion better places to post videos than via group chats, especially to conserve memory on people's devices, and pretty much everyone knows it at this point. Literally everyone I know has been posting videos via Youtube or Facebook or Instagram or Whatsapp or Discord or Slack or Google Drive or Dropbox for years at this point. But yes, Apple should absolutely support RCS for encrypted messaging in group chats with other devices. 100% with you on that one.

These types of responses are so aggravating. Congrats, it's not an issue for you. But it is for tons of other people, and your response is the equivalent of "well, works on my machine." Just sick of this borderline gaslighting where people are basically unable to imagine this is a significant issue just because it doesn't affect them personally. > So, Google resolved the interop issue with "liked an image" and similar reactions back in 2020. Except they didn't. I'm looking at a group chat from 2 days ago on a Pixel 7 that has a "Loved an image" response on it. About 90% of the emoji responses are "correctly reinterpreted", but I still often get the text printed out like that for whatever reason. > Literally everyone I know has been posting videos... Congrats, again, so this issue doesn't affect you. But literally whenever I go on a vacation with a group everyone posts pictures and videos in the chat. And they're barely viewable if I'm in the chat.
