Reply to comment by [deleted] in What's the best thing about iphone? by decoyj6g

imo iMessage is very American thing. What makes iMessage good? Sending SMS over data?

I use iMessage every single day. Not sure where this narrative comes from (UK)

I’m British and some use the WhatsApp and some use messenger. The majority for me is iMessage.

Didn't said that nobody uses it, just that its much more common in USA, could also be UK-s thing dno

It's absolutely not a UK thing. Barely anyone in the UK uses SMS and even fewer use iMessage. I had an iPhone for 2 years and didn't use it once.

Nothing. It's worse than lots of other messaging apps.

It's used a lot in the US because people are still using SMS over there, as if we were still in the year 1875. They like sticking to medieval systems and beliefs as much as possible, like the imperial system and strong religious fanatism.

I believe that in every other country, it's not used by that many people.

From what I see from other countries they use other messaging platforms like Whatsapp or Telegram to communicate.
