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?

    It’s kinda funny because both sides have a skewed view of the other. I see apple users as less tech-savvy and generally more of the “general” population (see: normies).

      Eh even for Android most people are normies to the point where I wouldn’t see the simplification that normies use Android an incorrect one. Sure android probably has a higher % of non normies but even then I doubt it’s a high percentage.

      Assuming by android we mean the android flavour that came with their phone
