I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    This makes sense. I was a late adopter of cell phones, mainly because I’m asocial and the thought of someone being able to contact me wherever I was is a terrifying thing. I didn’t even really get into it until smartphones, because that’s what made it worth it. Anything I want to know, right now? Yes please.

    I never used it to send things to others until reddit got crazy popular and even I heard about it.
