I just use Google Chat (replaced Google Hangouts) and it works on my PC (any browser) on my phone and tablets. Im not ready to give a company my phone number and have texts routed through them.

God I wish with every bone in my body that the world would band together and tell Apple to F off. You want excel / word / powerpoint on a mac? F off. You want windows to boot on your mac? F off. Want Adobe on a mac? F off. Just basically treat apple as they treat everyone else. Until they open up keynote, imessage, imovie then they can go pound sand.

Welcome to the world of proprietary walled gardens.
The walled garden isn't for the 'consistent user experience'...it's about capturing your money.

Actually you can already do this on Windows 11 if you have an Intel based computer. Intel Unison is available in the Windows store now. From what I'm reading about Microsoft's solution, it doesn't offer any features that Unison lacks. We'll see!
