They will have to offer iMessage compatibility to get me to switch back to android. I only have an iPhone because almost everyone in my life uses iMessage.
Unfortunately it's not up to Google to get Apple to open their walled garden. Regulation is what is needed here. The EU's DMA rightfully considers Google a gatekeeper in the Ads, Search, and Browser business. It's a joke they're still considering if Apple is a gatekeeper with regard to iMessage for messaging.
Apple has removed your ability to choose for yourself what to buy because of their strong grip with iMessage.
Over here everyone uses WhatsApp. Don’t expect the EU to solve this particular problem for you.
Germany? Ideleted it today
