Twenty years too late for a “protocol” that is bound to hardware - something we decided was a bad idea forty years ago, and part of why TCP/IP became the standard.
XMPP is a far better protocol, and has had all the features of RCS for 20 years.
XMPP does have something that breaks my heart: it bounds encryption to a very specific client. So forget about migrating to something else and keeping your history somehow. Which is very sad for supposedly interoperable protocol.
Fuck RCS.

I will never use RCS.

Are you talking about omemo and a scenario where you buy a new device and want to sync your entire history from the server?
XMPP is for grey beards
We need something clean and modern
