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?
Well i went the hard route of just uninstalling Whatsapp and FB, they know how to reach me and can call if need to be.
A big advantage is i can get excited when they show me their vacation pics again and its not the i have already seen those pics on insta/fb.
Its a bold move and you may feel a bit left out ( i felt like that) but over time you get used to it and it feels kinda relaxing
