Also RCS is build that way. It has more features than SMS, but underneath is even worse than it. Why in the 2023 people massively want to go back tying their chat app with mobile carrier? Like, giving what Internet standards we now have RCS should really be considered deprecated, hope we won't be stuck with it for next 30 years.
Because who is going to operate the servers?
Originally with RCS it was the carrier, but basically every carrier switched to using Jibe (by Google) for the backend.
And it sounds like Apple is going to operate their own as well.
Yeah... Matrix seems so much better over all for me. It's just not as controllable so there is less investment in pushing adoption from companies.
There is also XMPP which is much more developed than RCS and surpasses it on every front.
