    Well as I can’t use either of those on my degoogled Android device, Apple using RCS is irrelevant, and they should use a more open standard, like Matrix.

      Matrix is a terrible standard but otherwise I agree.

          Signal protocol is probably the best open standard?

          Hard to say, they all come with their compromises but Matrix would never work, it’s just too slow.

            Signal removed it’s RCS support:(

                Actually, I was thinking it was RCS. It was regular text messages. Thanks for the correction.
