I agree that opening up an RCS API would be great but I don’t think that’s what the original comment was getting at

I think the original comment was implying that nobody, anywhere, would be using a locked-down Google-controlled messaging client in 2023 if it wasn't preinstalled on their phones as the main messaging app. This little reaction gimmick doesn't mean anything towards the end of freeing people from backwards-ass proprietary messaging services that don't respect our damn privacy or freedom, it's just another monopoloid trap.

That's exactly what I was getting at :)
