There’s a new iMessage for Android app — and it actually works
The question is how long Apple will let it.
• A new Android app called Beeper Mini allows users to send iMessages as blue bubbles from non-Apple devices.
• Beeper Mini bypasses traditional iMessage hacks by directly sending iMessages from Android devices.
• The app has been praised for its smooth functionality, sending messages seamlessly between Android and iPhone users.

Instead of sucking Apple's dick and trying out hardest to integrate into their ecosystem, we should break them apart through governmental mandates, like how it has been slowly happening.
Exactly. I don't understand the interest and effort put in these makeshift solutions to integrate into a closed ecosystem managed by a company with so little interest in building interoperable solutions.
They're a cancer to the computing industry that is metastasizing, let's not help them at that.
Fuck apple and their walled garden.
I don't disagree with you, but open source has a long history of this sort of hostile forced-interoperability. Look at stuff like uBlock, there's a real case to be made that it shouldn't need to exist, and yet someone built it. Hostile "patching" of proprietary systems is not ideal, but fix barriers help in the short term.
They are going with USB C and RCS messages in the next iphone though. This is good news. The android imessage app is very late, considering.
