This is the right way to go about it. Let Apple interpret the emoji SMS similarly if they don't want their users to be annoyed. Or maybe let go of the iMessage monopolistic practices.

Apple runs a nice monopoly with iMessage and Americans stay on iPhone for iMessage, so they are never going to play nice.
Meanwhile the rest of the world uses WhatsApp and Signal and doesn't care.
Why doesn't Google make GMessages (with RCS) avilable on ios? Then these Android > apple phone reactions can contain the annoying reaction description as well as a link to a better messaging app for their rubbish idevice.
Apple and its users totally deserve this. Apple refuses to work on an update to SMS. And I don't know how many Apple users I've heard complain arrogantly that the problem with reactions is that Android phones don't work right, because they don't understand the difference between the iMesssge backend and SMS and that Apple is deliberately making things incompatible.

Because vanilla iPhones totally totally aren't worth it and never were, right? Totally. One model, current iPhone 14 isn't the best example and you'll be whining about it for next 10 years. Sigh.
[deleted post]$600 for software support ? That's where the SE starts in this region. Nah I'll pass. For the Pro which is the only iphone worth having, it's a $1600. No thanks, not wasting that much for that ""sUpEriOr sUpPorT""
Anonymous, 29 Sep 2022Android phones are just as amazing. For the price of one iPhone one can buy three phonesYou're doing the most typical Android user thing again. Quantity above all. Frankly, I'd rather be on good phone with good software support for 5 years than for same price change 3 rubbish phones with non existent software support. But that's just me.

Duo and Hangouts both existed for different uses, not just mere chat apps. Messages was for SMS. Duo was like Face Time. So I advise you to brush up your info about Google's apps before you go and label them as mere flopped apps that didn't come from the almighty appel

It's not Apple's fault that Google is behind in having a proper messaging app. They killed tons of messaging apps for one reason or another. iMessage has been there since 2011 and has been steadily improving.
What about RCS? A "modern standard" that doesn't even support group chat E2EE in 2022 and only took off in 2019, when it has existed longer than iMessage? Maybe ask Google first to actually make it better first before demanding someone else to adapt a crappy "standard"? Can't believe the ad easily worked on people making people think Apple deliberately made non-iMessage users green bubbles when it has been like that since the first iPhone which just meant it was sent on SMS LOL.

So yeah, don't go spreading any misinformation dude. They did discontinue some apps, but that's very common thing to do for companies, to let go what doesn't turn out profitable. Apple, for example discontinued the mini just after 2 years
