Everything already realised in messengers which are much more secure for
over a decade. Arlen, you are bullshitting like always.

What will be interesting to see is whether users will migrate back to
the default messages app for inter-platform communication. For instance,
I’ve preferred my WhatsApp experience for sharing high-res messages with
my iPhone-using peeps. But I also think they likely want to go back to
Apple Messages to chat with me, their one Android-using best friend,
where they already chat with everyone else. We’ll see how it lands when
iOS 18 hits iPhones this fall.
