I asked if people chose iPhone for the blue bubbles elsewhere a couple days ago, and while there was some good discourse on that post, the blue bubbles definitely also came up as a reason.

In my experience, when people find out my texts are green, they oftentimes would rather switch to a different platform altogether like Instagram or just not text at all.

Is this actually a deal-breaker in friendships out there?

    Only the most superficial of people would use this reason as a method for diminishing or isolating someone.

    I would question my relationship with them if this is their outlook.

      Absolutely this. If someone doesn’t want to be friends with me because my “bubbles are green” (lolwut?) I’ll be happy that the trash takes itself out and I don’t have to waste my valuable time on superficial garbage people.
