I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    If your “friends” make so much fuss over text bubbles, probably the best course of action is to find better friends.

      This.

      Doubly so when the whole reason is Apple intentionally creating a degraded experience for everyone who’s not paying them.
