I'll never wrap my head around why America cares so much about iMessage.
The literal rest of the world has managed to settle on chat apps that aren't locked into a single vendor.
Most of my family here in Australia use iPhones, and by extension, iMessage. Granted, they also use FB Messenger, Snapchat and all the rest, but mainly iMessage. It's the default and it works for them.
I can assure you that this is not a thing exclusive to the US.
