i suspect it’s because if they’re in all blue group chats then androids will legitimately break it and make it harder to do things like share pictures

one thing that I will give Google credit for is that it's the best way to subscribe to stuff like the nyt. automatic notifications when your introductory pricing offer is ending, and no bullshit required to cancel the sub, just a couple of easy to find clicks

android phones are good if you are poor or semi-poor, and only last year I was able to actually buy my somsung a53 without a 3-year contract and paying my operator in installments but due to socio-commercial pressure I need to agree with todays teens, android "phones" are loving cringe tbh and people who own them should unalive themselves (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
