Hopefully you will learn not to generalise so brazenly in future ;)
RCS is an open, standardised protocol implemented globally by the GSM. It isn’t beholden to an American company at all? The GSM takes advice from third parties (like the implementation of MLS) but acts independently. Yes, Google had a huge hand in the design and implementation of it but Google doesn’t own the standard protocol.
Not sure if you’re just joking… but it is vastly, vastly better than using a messaging platform owned by a for-profit company like Meta.
I don’t know any person using sms for regular communication, everyone I know uses some kind of messenger app.
Nearly everyone I know is still using SMS, even if they’re also messaging using another app.
It probably depends on where you live.
Why do you prefer/use SMS?
So because nobody in your life uses it, it doesn’t need to exist? What?
Are you the most important person on the planet, or just incapable of thinking that other people’s lives might be different to yours?
The point is to take the base communication technology (texting) and bring it to the 21st century without being beholden to some American company.
Because no person in my life uses it I made the generalization that it isn’t used much, leading to my top comment.
Is this satirical? RCS is beholden to some American company as far as I can tell.
