      The only RCS apps, to my knowledge are Google Messages and Samsung Messages.

      Not sure why.

        Well as I can’t use either of those on my degoogled Android device, Apple using RCS is irrelevant, and they should use a more open standard, like Matrix.

              Signal protocol is probably the best open standard?

              Hard to say, they all come with their compromises but Matrix would never work, it’s just too slow.

                    Actually, I was thinking it was RCS. It was regular text messages. Thanks for the correction.

      Unfortunately RCS is on the carrier side. The most basic chat system built in by the phone carrier will likely have RCS.
