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 used Textra for the longest time, but switched to the default messaging app when RCS support came out for it. The default app actually has most of the features Textra has now. Scheduled sends was the main one I used Textra for, but the default app has it. I don’t believe it has automatic delayed sends, like the 5 second delay so you can cancel the send. I did like that feature, but it wasn’t a hard requirement for me personally.
