You know, I've always noticed that iMessages were blue and SMS were green, but I've never found one more or less legible than the other. To me the fact that they are different colours is nice.

I worry this a subjective matter, i.e. if the colours were reversed some people would make exactly the same complaint.

The actual argument really should focus on whether phone providers should use some interoperable standard more capable than SMS. If they can't come to consensus then the telecommunications regulators should involve themselves and force one.

That's what RCS is but Apple doesn't want to join. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rich_Communication_Services?wp...

iMessage is apparently a differentiator for them.
