We have message interoperability already. I can install any messenger of my choosing. I can install WeChat, Facebook Messenger, Slack, Signal, etc, etc.

But I don't need any of those because 99% of the people I communicate with are on iMessage.

And again, you choose to not be able to communicate with that 1% over iMessage why? It sounds like being able to do so would only benefit you.

    I actually offered to buy that person an iPhone. But regardless, no one is a victim here.

      Seems it would have costed you a lot less if Apple just didn't arbitrarily block that person in the first place.

      If that person had taken you up on that offer, you would literally be a victim of their anticompetitive practices.
