I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

      I use an Android, and I wouldn’t necessarily say that Android sms messaging is good software. Most of our sms apps either suck, are mined by corporations for data, or both. Apple isn’t better in those regards, I’m just saying that it isn’t one of Android’s strengths over Apple.
