They really didn't have to redesign a text box. Please stop reinventing the wheel. I don't need another pop up in my life.

Fuckin annoying tbh. Can't stand when giga corps do this and sense it's required for rcs I can't just go get a better foss alternative sense none of the people I text are tech savvy or able/willing to switch to something else and rcs is pretty essential for me knowing if someone read it or not.
If I could I would ditch all google and giga corps products but I'm way to poor to do that. And it's so ingrained into society it's hard to find anything that works with these proprietary shit.
I don't understand how is it essential to know if someone read your message. Shouldn't they reply to you if they need to let you know?
Read confirmation is the first feature I disable on every instant messaging platform. Also delivery confirmation is implemented in standard SMS.
It's not just read receipts. It's reactions, replies, and immensely better image quality.
The comment I replied to listed read confirmation as the only essential feature to them, that forbids them to drop Google Messages.
My brain omitted that context for some reason, fair enough.
