Have any of you android users setup an iMessage server such as BoueBubbles or AirMessage? Or some similar?
If so, how well does it work? Is only an apple account required? Do apple users send your email an iMessage? Also, was it easy to setup?
Thanks!!!
It’s mostly a north american problem as far as I know. In Germany more than 80% of the people use WhatsApp. Almost no one uses sms anymore.
If the alternative is sms I understand why people like iMessage so much.
Edit: Some more data, it seems like iMessage has about as many users as Signal, according to https://www.statista.com/statistics/867539/top-active-social-media-platforms-in-germany/
Wow, as many users as signal. Thats an interesting stat.
I like the idea of iMessage. It makes sense - default to a proper, encrypted messaging system while allowing for SMS.
Signal dropping SMS support is just so confusing. Keep SMS until many people have converted. You can always remove SMS later when it finally fades away.
