Nobody in EU uses SMS, it stopped being a thing as soon as everyone had phones with internet and you could use better chat apps. So we don't give a crap about iMessage being open or not.
I’m in the EU, I still use a lot the sms
Interesting! Why?
What else is there to use? SMS is the only cross platform protocol that works. MMS is horrible and Apple refuses ro support RCS. Of course SMS apps auto upgrades to RCS if both parties supports it which is in practice only between Androids.
Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp, ICQ, FB messenger, Matrix, just to name a few!
None of those work without both people having the app and so provide a much worse experience over SMS, just why?
