Media messages from Androids to iPhones are in fact technologically-limited by MMS. That's not an Apple-imposed limitation, it's written in stone in the MMS standard.

Works fine over WhatsApp/Telegram/…. Not a technological limitation.
I was referring specifically to using the text messaging system, not the Internet.
You still cannot send livephotos via Whatsapp/Telegram. They convert to still photos. So you still lose something there.
MMS limitations are only relevant because Apple makes them relevant. I have never sent or received an MMS outside of the iMessage interoperability context. This is obviously deliberate.
You can send whatever you want through SMS, as a link.
What do you think those have to do with SMS/MMS?
The GP comment is about sending media between iPhone and Android, and claims that that is limited by MMS. That’s obviously not true. And has nothing to do with SMS/MMS.

Please show me where that's written because iPhones have no problems sending full-resolution images to my droid device but I can't do the same to them.
