Somehow I feel that iMessage being a big deal in the US is not a problem the EU needs to solve. If iMessage were a big thing here as well, sure, but apparently it’s not.

@ipp0 @thehatfox correct I’ve spoken to many people from Europe and they have all confirmed that. They say they just use WhatsApp and signal.

And to be fair, it’s the EU making a stink about it.

Yes, in my experience really no one cares about iMessage even the slightest in the EU. It would make zero difference if Apple was forced to change anything there.
