      It is though. I’m the only developer in an agency of designers. Yes, they all have iphones and I’m the only Android lol

      It’s absurd, but i get the blue bubble looks of superiority all the time.

        In the US. Outside of the US no one uses iMessage, not even iPhone users.

          I’m in Germany, at least my designer colleagues love iMessage, but not for work. Since we know each other for a long time, there’s lots of semi private messaging going around.

            Not only someone using iMessage but at the same time not using Signal or Whatsapp? Thats the first time I’ve heard of either of these two.

            WhatsApp for the older generation, Signal for the younger (Germany).

      It’s not just about the color of the bubble. If you go on an outing with a group of iPhone users, there’s a high chance they’ll create a group chat with and without you, because the group chat with you won’t let them send HQ photos. Even if they aren’t trying to be exclusionary, someone will inevitably forget to send messages to both group chats. iMessage incentivizes situations like this which socially punishes Android users.
