Somehow I feel that iMessage being a big deal in the US is not a problem the EU needs to solve. If iMessage were a big thing here as well, sure, but apparently it’s not.
@ipp0 @thehatfox correct I’ve spoken to many people from Europe and they have all confirmed that. They say they just use WhatsApp and signal.
And to be fair, it’s the EU making a stink about it.
Yes, in my experience really no one cares about iMessage even the slightest in the EU. It would make zero difference if Apple was forced to change anything there.
Expect the previously announced RCS integration to be “delayed” or “forgotten about.”
It’s probably a part of quiet negotiation with EU regulators. Apple has a solid point, very little people use texts here, we’re all on WhatsApp, Messenger etc. but it’s hard to measure so maybe this is what it took to convince them.

Apple Pie is English, and there were no native apples in the Americas.
Nobody says that as the expression ;)
