> It's cleary Apple nerfing the video to make it look bad.
The site itself contradicts that claim. From the FAQ (emphasis added):
> When people with iPhones and Android phones text each other, Apple relies on SMS and MMS, outdated systems that cannot support large media files. That means photos and videos are often compressed and come through blurry. The severity varies by location and carrier based on compression and size limits.
Nothing you said contradicted my point. Apple forces SMS which nerfs videos, they choose that on purpose to inconvenience Android users. Android to Android works perfectly because they aren't using SMS, they are using RCS.
> they choose that on purpose to inconvenience Android users.
So you keep saying, but what’s the source for the claim? It inconveniences iOS users just as much since it only happens during the interaction of iOS and Android. I doubt Apple hates Android so much they specifically choose to inconvenience their own users to spite the competing platform. Seems to me a more likely explanation is that they don’t care enough or don’t want to implement the protocol.
