I don't want to be cynical, but is this part required for Apple to implement RCS?
"and bring a wide range of iMessage-style features to messaging between iPhone and Android users."
I can totally imagine it being limited to the encryption and the bare minimum, as imessages features don't perfectly overlap with the RCS features (e.g. emojis).
They aren't doing this by choice lol
Still better than nothing lol.
Let me know when you can use RCS on an Android phone without Google Play Services outside of Google Messages
I think this is because the carriers were slow / refused to host RCS on their servers so most carriers make you use Google servers.
Seems like Nothing did it?
No, Nothing will provide a bridge to iMessage by logging with your password on the Mac mini farm. Not something that you want.
Also nothing didn't shit, they partnered with Sunbird.
I’m glad that they’re finally going to implement it but I can’t help but shake the feeling that there’s still going to be some interoperability issues.
If they can manage it, it's safe to assume they will implement those issues
