    Small point here too: SMS used to be a paid plan option in the US. I never paid for an SMS plan because iMessage was free over data (I just wouldn’t receive texts from Android users). There was a good amount of time when iMessage was legitimately a great option.

      So it’s not a cross-platform messenger.

      Other messengers existed before iMessage. Other societies didn’t refuse to accept cross-platform messengers. Installing wasn’t even hard back then.
