I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    I upgraded from an iPhone 8 to a 13 Pro. I’m into amateur photography and the amount I can do with my phone now, that I don’t have to grab my camera for, makes it worth it to me. Apple does definitely have an issue with making lower end phones that are affordable though. But for me, I get a flagship every 4-5 years and that suits me. I can’t fathom people that upgrade a phone this expensive every year or two.

    Edit: Also, thank you for the apology. I did get a bit heated in my first reply so I’m sorry as well.
