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?
In our country sms were free in the first few years of early 2000s, then the telcos learned. And now its paid per message.
Though nobody uses sms anymore, since FB is free and so is messenger, even if you don’t have data available.
Zuck struck gold here.
