The blue vs green bubble thing never really bothered me. As long as I can communicate with the person I'm talking to, I don't care how the messages are sent, unless maybe if I don't want a message to be sent over plain sms. It's ridiculous how it has become a status thing.
It is though. I'm the only developer in an agency of designers. Yes, they all have iphones and I'm the only Android lol
It's absurd, but i get the blue bubble looks of superiority all the time.
In the US. Outside of the US no one uses iMessage, not even iPhone users.
I'm in Germany, at least my designer colleagues love iMessage, but not for work. Since we know each other for a long time, there's lots of semi private messaging going around.
Not only someone using iMessage but at the same time not using Signal or Whatsapp? Thats the first time I've heard of either of these two.
WhatsApp for the older generation, Signal for the younger (Germany).
Yes. And the younger generation uses Telegram, at least here.
