It’s all about the bubbles.

Samsung has released a new video in support of Google’s #GetTheMessage campaign which calls for Apple to adopt RCS or “Rich Communication Services,” the cross-platform protocol pitched as a successor to SMS that adopts many of the features found in modern messaging apps… like Apple’s own iMessage.

    I keep saying that Signal made a huge mistake by getting rid of SMS support. I was able to convince some people to switch to signal because it was a simple replacement for their text messaging app. They didn’t have to think about which app to go to in order to talk to people, it was all in one place.

    My ability to get people to adopt Signal hit near zero after they did that and people went back to messaging me via SMS. They killed their best differentiating feature in order to try to be more of the same as their competitors.
