I get they're going to support RCS soon, but why let this shit happen for so long?
I bet their version of RCS is also minimal. Just so they can complain about how broken RCS is. Thanks to their shenanigans, third party messaging apps thrive outside of the standards and market fragmentation is real. Getting to be a damn pain having to check which apps a person has before being able to communicate with them.
Read up on RCS' history, and current standard.
RCS is a clown college of brokenness that doesn't include encryption, and not even all of the telcoms in the country put together could make an official client for it. It is no more a standard than iMessage, and it certainly isn't as good of one.
