Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps... like Apple’s own iMessage.

Edge browser works.

Who has even heard of TLS outside of tech folks?

... that's what you sound like judging something so ignorantly. No wonder you're an Apple user.

Ok. What makes anyone want RCS?

What makes anyone want iMessage?

[-] MrSpArkle@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Why would anyone want to stop using iMessage? It's honestly quite good and the app integrations are great. Honestly the only iPhone users I know who don't use iMessage are due to network effects (families in foreign countries where Whatsapp dominates).

It's not about people wanting to stop using iMessage. It's that over half of the mobile customer base CANNOT use iMessage because apple refuses to allow it. If Apple had created a solid Android app for iMessage, RCS would never have been created.

Because it's obnoxious to anyone not using an Apple device.

It works and I don’t need to know what TLS is to use it.

Transport Layer Security, or TLS, is a widely adopted security protocol designed to facilitate privacy and data security for communications over the Internet. A primary use case of TLS is encrypting the communication between web applications and servers, such as web browsers loading a website.
