Because everyone is too distracted by “Apple bad” to realise how truly awful RCS is.
More awful than sms?
No, but that doesn't make it good.
The whole world except a minority moved away from SMS a long time ago.
That's great that the rest of the world moved on. That doesn't mean that those of us in locations that haven't moved on have to use the most inferior version of messaging.
I didn't say that, but it might explain why Apple didn't say much. I'm just keeping the discussion to the thread.
The only people who didn’t move on are Americans.
Nobody else uses SMS for anything else than service messages. Nobody cares about “bubble Color” in Europe, Asia or Africa
