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?

    I think it’s a case of the tyranny of minor differences and what people are used to. My personal phone is an android and I’m used to it and like it, while my work phone is an iPhone and I use it for entirely different work-related reasons that it’s great for.

    Never shall the two meet! I actually like having my work and private lives segregated into two separate OS’s that have little if any overlap.
