Comment on Google Is Offering Serious Cash to Lure iPhone Users to the Pixel 8
Bye@lemmy.world 1 year agoI wasn’t implying google is keeping it off of android. Everyone knows apple gate keeps it to keep people on iPhone.
I’m just saying that without it, I can’t go back to android.

Fair enough. Maybe one day these companies will stop being total dicks about tying basic functionality to proprietary apps and OSs and we can all finally just choose the stuff we want to choose. Will probably never happen but I can dream.

Yeah really. Or someone will create an abstraction layer above WhatsApp/signal/iMessage/etc so I don’t have to use multiple programs to talk with my friends.

Can someone here update us on the status of that EU gatekeeping law in regards to iMessage?
