I had never heard of it either until I switched to an iPhone for unrelated reasons. Half my contacts suddenly were congratulating me on being "blue". It was... weird.

To be fair this is something I would do ironically because I'm a millenial and that's how my humor works.

Though I would also not be surprised to find people who felt this genuinely.

Also a millennial, have seen people say this both in jest and in earnest.

Sounds like a cult. It is very creepy, to have many people message you after you install a messenger too.
