This is a serious question which, as usual, the iKooks will be deathly
afraid of so they will consider _any_ adult question, a troll.
I have observed that nobody on the Android newsgroup seems to be
complaining about any lack of functionality of their chosen messaging app.
It's only people like Steve who happen to be on iOS who are complaining.
Why?
Since sms uses both platforms he knows what he�s missing in iOS.

he claims to use both, yet his knowledge of ios is deeply lacking.

Thank you both badgolferman and nospam for answering as an adult,
since I
strive to _understand_ why people do what they do (ask me about
Russians!).
Since sms uses both platforms he knows what he’s missing in iOS. The rest of don’t know what we’re missing!
Many Android users , at least in the U.S., are very annoyed about the
lack of iMessage capability. Annoyed to the point of there being three different ways to work around this issue: AirMessage <https://airmessage.org/>, BlueBubbles <https://bluebubbles.app/>, and
Beeper <https://www.beeper.com/>.
However, the adult question still needs to be asked of those on this ng.
*What can the iMessage app do that this modern Android app doesn't do?*

Keep iMessage group chats from turning green?

While Steve claims "many Android users" pine for iMessage, I'm not one of them, and, let's be clear, I have plenty of iOS devices to test iMessage.
Steve is a political animal, particularly grooming himself for Cupertino. Worse, the iKooks are ignorant as the Jim Jones' kultists were.

correct. you do not.
Damn, if he leaves, we'll all become dumber, because he'll take all
those books with him.

It's not the color of the messages, it's about modifying the group
members without creating a whole new group. If any member of a group
text is Android, you can't remove anyone. The only groups you can
modify would be if everyone is an iPhone user on iMessage.

Why can Android messengers do that group member mod but iOS can't?

Android can't do that either. I'm part of a group chat that has
roughly equal Android and iOS members. It's constantly updated as
group members drop out or get added. An Android user took over the management of the members because she thought she could add/remove
members easily but found out she couldn't either.

You will miss him if he leavesi
If I look at this group in Google Groups, rather than using Thunderbird,
it's like there's a sideband channel of a few trolls arguing with each
other about things that they know little about.

You will miss him if he leaves since he gives you a reason to exist on
this group. And this group will wither away to very few messages
eventually.

What you could do is to set up an AirMessage server and have all the
Android members of the group install the AirMessage app. Each user will
have to have an AppleID. You only need one AirMessage server. See <https://airmessage.org/help/guide/multiple-users>. They can also access AirMessage from their computers, another advantage of iMessage versus
SMS/MMS (unless you use SMS/MMS via Google Voice). You can use the
AirMessage Android app for both SMS and iMessage.

Hi badgolferman,
The Apple newsgroups are a culture replete with deceit, hypocrisy &
lies.
Yet, this group existed before me, and it will exist well after I'm
gone.
I first found this group when I tried to jailbreak an AT&T iPhone
for a kid
and that's when I found out this newsgroup is different from OS
newsgroups.

Yeah, right�K
Nobody on Android is complaining ('cept Steve) about their messaging app.
Only iOS users are complaining.
you have that backwards. ios users are not complaining because they
have a more capable and better integrated messaging app than anything
on android.
google has tried more than a dozen messaging apps in the past decade or
so and still can't figure out how match what apple has, which is why
they're desperately clinging to rcs as their last hope.
worse, they're lying about it. among the things they don't tell people
is that encryption is not part of rcs, but rather something they added
to their messaging app, making it *not* 'universal'. it's actually an
attempt at locking in users.

That you believe Google's messenger is the _only_ messenger on Android is
yet another way I know that you're completely clueless about iOS & Android.

the only clueless person is you. nobody ever said anything close to
that.
both platforms have a selection of messaging apps. maybe if you had any friends to message you'd know how they work.
