I’d like you to query your family and find out. Of course this is not a reasonable request and I’ll likely never know.

This isn’t to mean you have poor relationships. It’s just extremely likely as it happens in every other group.

I have friends and family who I don’t include in group chats because we’re using iOS features. It’s nothing significant so I don’t tell them about it.

I also have group chats with them. An example is there’s a family group chat about a planned vacation, everyone is on it. It’s pretty important.

I have numerous other group chats with hiking photos and kid photos that don’t include them because they can’t do moment shares and all the stuff that my family members send out from their iPhone.

I don’t think this means we have a bad relationship. I also don’t text my elderly family members who don’t have mobiles, I call them.

It’s just a function of using convenient tools and what’s available.

Similarly I have friends and business groups that only communicate through discord or whatsapp or viber, etc. I would never feel bad because a subset of my friends started a chat on Facebook and didn’t include me. I don’t use that app.

But I also don’t believe that I’m in all group chats with all people I think are important.
