I love how Marques is actually aware of the international community and doesnât just assume everyone is from America

As an android user in the US, I've actually grown to appreciate the green bubbles thing a little bit. Maybe I'm just a contrarian, but I think that if someone doesn't want to be your friend because of your phone choice, then you really don't want them as a friend anyways. At this point it's just a filter for shallow people

The saddest part is that young people are being cuffed into this apple ecosystem. The same young generation who's supposed to be tech savvy and extremely adaptable to change.

In Germany it is the opposite đ
no one uses only iMessage.
It's WhatsApp, Telegram and Wire/Threema/Signal for everything

I just love how Apple convinced people to blame Android users for this when this is literally 100% Apple's fault for not allowing anyone else to use their applications

I consider the lack of read receipts and typing indicators to be a bonus. Nobody accuses me of leaving them on read, and I can't be expected to respond to texts instantly. HUGE benefit and I couldn't care less what color my bubbles are.

As someone with no friends, I see this as an absolute win.

the amount of times I have been told to "just get an iphone" in response to my texts showing up green on their phones or limiting their group chat functionalities is astonishing. It's so refreshing to read these comments and see that this isn't a worldwide thing

As a middle school educator, Iâve heard quite a number of students make fun of kids that have an android phone because of the green bubble. They would say their phones are slow, ugly, or cheap. It really is a problem.

I never really thought seriously about this until recently. I usually just use the default chat app. It was only until my younger sister told me she has an iphone because she felt pressured to do so. Seemed odd, but it was even stranger when i found out the pressures were tied to imessage and the green/blue bubbles. That her generation actually ostracizes anyone for being "green text". It was just so alien of a concept to me.

Thank you.
As someone from the Middle East and has seen different posts on Reddit regarding Android and iOS interactions, this video was very informative.
You also pointed out a good observation which is that one company shouldn't have all the communication

Important to note, iMessage doesnât turn the android userâs bubble green. It turns the iPhone userâs bubble green. Like itâs punishing you for having a friend that doesnât use apple products.

Wow, blows my mind as a non-American that this is an issue. Always interesting to hear about weird cultural aspect of countries though, even though this is a particularly crazy one! Thanks for the video Marques!

Two years from now and Google announcing they've done everything they can to make RCS compatible iMessage. This video aged surprisingly well.
I live in the US and I never heard about this whole green vs blue bubble thing until an iPhone user in a group chat was complaining to me. I was like, I can make the color whatever I want to in the theme settings.

Thank you for breaking this down so eloquently and articulately . As an elder millennial I was like ' wtf is even going on?!?' as if we don't already have enough legit conflicts, wars and battles going on in this world...

I just listened to 20 minutes about text messages, and never felt bored. Your video format and storytelling are top tier - Not to mention the production quality, which is off the charts!

I'm from Switzerland. The iPhone is about as popular here as it is in the US but our default messaging app (for better and for worse) is in fact WhatsApp. That's the messaging app that everybody and your mom uses and that you kinda have to have, especially for group chats. While I absolutely detest the fact that a service from Meta has become the de facto standard in my country, I'm still glad that we don't have a problem with school bullying over the color of bubbles - at least as far as I know

I particularly enjoyed the 'iPhones have better cameras than Android' pitch from my iPhone owning friends who tried to convince me to convert when I was clinging on to my Blackberry.
I took their advice, and bought a Sony Xperia.

I saw this and had to watch it to see how you could stretch this subject into a 20 minute video. Very informative, great job!
