87% of US teens. Here in Germany I see a big mix of devices in teenagers and grown ups hands and nobody seems to care about it.
Yep. The popularity of iPhones in US doesn't represent the rest of the world. iPhone users are the minority in Finland. No one is complaining about green chat bubbles because iPhone users have to use WhatsApp aswell.
same here, hearing about green chat hate was completely bonkers to me.
It's annoying that people have to use a Meta program.
Why? It's easy to use, there's no ads, has many features, etc.
Is it only because it's owned by a big corp?
Meta is not just a big corp. They are known for misusing the data they illegally gather. It's no secret that they admitted to trying to change the results of political elections. That's no entity I want to have my data.
Considering they are probably on the side of iMessage, I’m going to venture a guess and say the company size has nothing to do with it.
Meta is deeply unethical, even for a giant company.
It's because it's owned by a personal data vacuum corp.
I did ask my teen, who said that while the bubble color is fun to tease someone about, it really doesn’t matter since they’re more likely using SnapChat or some other app, rather than texting
There are still enough people who are obnoxious about it, and most of them seem to be iPhone users interestingly
Drummed up marketing.
I still remember Apple's 'Mac vs. PC' campaign and even then I thought it would just encourage (even more) elitism amongst Apple users..
That was a hilarious campaign since it ran while Apple computers were just regular x86 IBM clones.
They also always refer to it as "my iPhone", never "my phone", at least all the users I have met (NL). I find this very odd.
As an iPhone user who was not obnoxious about it I’ve seen a fair share of pushy android user in school. Then again so were the Xbox vs PlayStation kids. They’ll grow out of it.
One would hope. But there are two many adults who need to pick sides.
Like the vegans of smartphones

Casually observed anecdotal evidence is even more worthless than a survey.
