    Fuck em. I don’t want to talk to them anyway. If having a phone preference different than them is a problem

        As an iOS user, I’ve never chosen not to speak to someone because the text bubble showed up green. If another iOS user is doing that, then fuck them as well I guess.

          Most adults, it’s probably not a thing. It’s a big deal to kids and teens though. My daughter hates all the ads she gets but when she bought her first phone that wasn’t a hand me down, she went iPhone because of the bubbles and friends. I guess peer pressure is stronger than her dislike of advertising, that I can easily bypass on my android.

            I mean, that only really makes the argument for stereotyping people for having different brands of phone (the point of OP) weaker if it’s just childish kid/teenage behaviour.
