Nobody cares what color their iMessage chat bubbles are. It’s complete nonsense. We have a group text chat at work, other than a little friendly gentle ribbing about people owning the wrong phone (much like following the wrong sports team), it never even gets mentioned. My kids are the same way, they have group chats with their friend groups and the ones that speak in green bubbles are not ostracized because of it.

I just recently switched to an iPhone (not quite 2 years ago) after owning Android phones for years. iMessage wasn’t even a thought in my purchasing decision. It’s a great messaging app, but at the end of the day, it’s just a way to send text messages.
