      Good news.

      The more people they keep from using this garbage “standard”, the better.

      It still requires a phone number. It still falls back to SMS, it still fails, a LOT - just see the comments in this thread.

      It’s 20 years too late.

      XMPP was better, in 2010, than RCS is today. I was using XMPP on my phone in 2010, messaging people on computers, seamlessly. Without a phone number. On multiple services using Pidgin.

      No thanks, I don’t want this garbage called RCS.
