So how will Apple craft this announcement in a way that avoids showing some kind of submission to the will and desires of the Android juggernaut? Let me guess... Anyone texting in from hardware other than an iPhone will still get the funky balloon color, eh?
Tim Apple: "Today, we're excited to announce 'Kumbaya Messaging'™️ for iOS, iPadOS, WatchOS, and MacOS! Kumbaya Messaging™️ brings not only Apple Ecosystem™️enjoyers closer together through rich, more connected communications, but will allow all your friends and family who are still using Android to be able to be able to enjoy all of your shitposting gifs, memeojis, and Live Photo™️ snapshots of your take-out pho, including the hilariously embarrassing audio you always forget about. We at Apple want to bridge the divides in our daily lives, and with Kumbaya Messaging™️, we believe we can bring all of us that much closer together."
Yep.
