Note, this doesn't work with any other (hypothetical) RCS clients, this is not a part of the RCS standard, it's a feature entirely proprietary to Google Messages.

Every now and then, I consider using a Google product, and then I remember this.
RCS is not a Google product but the official SMS successor.
Excellent. Looks like Google is finally on the right path to making a good messager after all these years.
How long until they kill it off like everything else that worked well?
Wait, google has been shitting on apple for not supporting rcs for like a decade and they haven’t had E2E encryption this whole time? What a fucking joke.
