Exactly. It’s in no way a bad thing for anyone. We’ll see the way that it’s implemented. It’s the first step. r/Android is rearing its head here. Let’s enjoy this for the moment

Glad that you emphasized Europe. Here in the states where iMessage is dominant, it’ll make a difference.

At the end of the day it’s not a bad thing. I’m also waiting for details with compatibility to be ironed out, but it’s a start.

Just surprised at the whole negative energy with this announcement considering this was a “when pigs fly” or “when hell freezes over” sorta thing. Again, it’s a start and hopefully Google opens it up (even if forcibly by the EU) down the road.

Samsung Messages is the only other, right?

Same. I don’t even mind Tensor 2 in it. It runs fine enough and I never had any overheating. It’s a beautiful piece of hardware.

My main gripe is with how heavy it is. It’s tiring having to hold it for extended periods when I mostly use the outer screen (which is the perfect screen size, but that’s a whole other thing). And yeah… watching media on the inner screen with a crease and with the size of the media the same as a normal smartphone… it’s just something I looked over before purchasing.

I regret buying it also. But… I would have also regretted buying the Galaxy Fold, OnePlus Open, or any other foldable. Right now, my Pixel Fold just sits in a drawer as an overly expensive backup device while I use a Pixel 8 Pro as my daily. Will likely use the Fold as a trade-in for the Galaxy Ultra in January/February.
