Right, I haven’t seen any of them say they are doing away with SMS. Even Android who has RCS in place also has SMS along side it, RCS is just an enhancement.

Even with RCS on both major platforms in the near future, a lot of automations and companies will continue to utilize SMS, and I’d bet that’s true for a long time.

1. Most Android phones use RCS, so it’s on-subject here since most of us don’t pay attention to iPhone news - and is welcomed news because of #2’s answer

2. You ever been in a low or no signal area, but have wifi, and try to text an iPhone user? Ever try to send/receive photos/videos with an iPhone and they look like garbage? Tired of getting SMS’s in group chats of “Mom loved ‘Please poop in the toilet next time, we are tired of cleaning it up’” instead of it just “hearting” the SMS message? A lot of new tech coming out today started from something that “was good” and was built on to make it better.

Too many politically charged comments, locking. We are a technology community, if you want to talk politics please do so in the appropriate community.

You and I both know it was not your first offense, you’re entitled to your opinion on the rest, but we don’t play with rule 3 - especially when it is blatantly ignored.

Also if you’d like to get an alert for why your comment was removed or why you were banned, I’d recommend making a feature request to the Lemmy devs, I agree it’d be nice to get alerted when you did something against the rules and what rule, we post that in the mod log but it unfortunately doesn’t tell the user without them digging into modlogs.

Have a good day!

Too many rule 3 breaking comments, locking this post. Let’s be excellent to eachother please!

Thanks for being understanding!

Typically no, that wouldn’t get it removed.

Only removed because the user is getting harassed elsewhere for the signature, and the comment was border-line rule 3.

Hey no worries, appreciate it!

Yeah, I saw some reports from both accounts yesterday that made it obvious that’s their backup account. Also, not the first time they’ve done this, and they also spam report comments when they get angry.

Heyo! Yes I can work on that, currently have a lot of work projects going on, but once things settle down.

We are not allowing memes to be posted still, just inside this post itself as comments to hopefully avoid removing meme posts. We have had to remove multiple meme posts since the controversy began, hoping to alleviate that.
